Force delete Group Site Collection after Group Deleted?
I don't suppose there is a way to force delete a site collection after the group is deleted? I created a test group that happened to use the name that I now need to use. I deleted that group day...
Just so happened to hit the SP site for this Group that I deleted (as part of this original thread), it was in my browser auto-complete, and lo and behold, it is still sitting out there, guess I'll contact support.
All of the other components of the group don't exist, and the site doesnt have the little link that says to go to Group Conversations, or other components.

Christophe - We have the same issue. Groups get deleted but the SPO Site and Planner Board are still available/active. A particular instance, it's been a week since the group was deleted and the SPO/Plan are still there.
- Some feedback here: it could be nice to provide some alerting to the user that deletes the Group advising when Group componentes has been deleted
- I've opened a support ticket. Upon further review, no Group that I have ever created and deleted (around 10) had its corresponding SP site removed.
- So interesting resolution, the direct url: /_layouts/15/deleteweb.aspx did it (where trying to go via site settings and powershell didnt work)
As soon as I deleted one manually that way, the rest of them seem to have deleted themselves. Maybe the first one just go hung up in a delete job and was preventing the rest from doing the same
