Delete Multiple Sub Folder From Online OneDrive

Question

Hello,

I have a question regarding One Drive !!

I have One Drive Online, where i have multiple folders and multiple sub folders.. that too having N number of files..

It is not allowing me to delete folder directly because of nested files and folder structure.

Hi, I'm Elise, and I'd be happy to help with your issue.

Is it a business OneDrive account? If so this can be caused by data loss prevention policies which are set by the organisation, in which case the IT administrator can modify these settings to allow this action.
