Hi all,

I am getting below error in our farm.

"In some situations, a content database that is used by Microsoft SharePoint Foundation may become corrupted. The corrupted database may contain orphaned apps which are inaccessible. This will cause unnecessary resource use, including resources on external systems and licences for the App. "

How can I find orphan app and delete to resolve this ?
