Backup Vault Deletion Issue

Question

Encountered an error while attempting to delete a backup vault:

Executed delete command on 1 selected items
Succeeded: 0, Failed: 1, Canceled: 0.
Cannot delete the Backup vault as there are existing backup instances or backup policies in the vault. (Code: UserErrorDppBackupVaultNotEmpty)

Steps taken so far include removing existing backups in the storage account, deleting the storage account, stopping the backup policy, removing dependencies, disabling soft delete, and attempting to delete the vault. Despite checking everything, the vault still cannot be deleted.

What additional steps or areas should be investigated to resolve this issue?

Answer 1

I suspect it can be becuase of some hidden policies.

Can you try this:

Click on the blue filter named "Datasource Type = ". The default view does not show all policies or identities.

I saw it helped in a similar thread here:
