Configuration Manager possible corruption

I have a collection that appears to be corrupt and receive a generic failure when I try to alter it, I have inherited this environment and seems this collection was setup back in 2022, we are currently running CM 2409.

I have checked SQL and the Collection ID is XXX00091 but the limiting collection is also XXX00091, how is this possible and does anyone know a way to correct this, I have tried to point the limiting collection to another one via the GUI and Powershell also tried to delete the collection but it just gives a generic failure error:

Generic failure

    This is not the answer you are looking for but if you think there is corruption in the DB. I recommend that you contact MS support directly as it will likely mean that you will need to edit the DB. Editing the DB is unsupported without MS direct support.
