How to remove Front Door

Question

I have had Azure for hosting for some time and in 2025 they added Front Door, which I do not need nor requested. I have attempted to remove but I keep getting charged. Anyone know how to have support respond? I have attempted several support tickets.

Hello @SBP,

I understand you're trying to remove the Azure Front Door service that was added to your account. I totally understand how frustrating it can be to keep getting charged for a service you don’t need.

To remove Azure Front Door, you can use the Remove-AzFrontDoor cmdlet in PowerShell. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do this:

1. Open PowerShell: Make sure you have the Azure PowerShell module installed and connected to your Azure account.
2. Run the Cmdlet: Use the following command, replacing <ResourceGroupName> and <FrontDoorName> with the actual names of your resource group and Front Door setup.

      Remove-AzFrontDoor -ResourceGroupName <ResourceGroupName> -Name <FrontDoorName>
   

3. Confirmation Prompt: If you want to avoid accidentally deleting the wrong resource, you can use the -Confirm parameter to get a prompt before deletion.
4. Verify Removal: Check the Azure portal or run the command below to ensure that the Front Door service has been removed:

      Get-AzFrontDoor -ResourceGroupName <ResourceGroupName>
