How can I delete a quick form in teams???
Robert_Cario Hello, this is my new account. Well, it seems as things have changed when looking at it now. If you are the owner of the team and have the setting "Owners can delete all messages" the three dots will appear and the form/quick poll can be deleted. When I tried this a year ago or something like that it still showed the poll with "this poll has been deleted".
So, you need to be owner of team with above check box under the team settings and can be set per team or by using Teams messaging policy.
-AllowOwnerDeleteMessages (this one controls if the checkbox will be selected or not)Setting that determines whether or not owners can delete messages that they or other members of the team have posted.
Set-Team (MicrosoftTeamsPowerShell) | Microsoft Docs
-AllowOwnerDeleteMessage (this one controls if the checkbox should be visible or not)Determines whether owners are allowed to delete all the messages in their team. Set this to TRUE to allow. Set this to FALSE to prohibit.

Please respond to this request as I have encountered the same problem (i.e., Please share clear and simple step-by-step instructions to delete a poll posted in a Teams channel created using Forms). There is no simple option to delete the post by selecting the three dots in the upper right of the poll posting. Thank you. ChristianBergstrom

ChristianJBergstrom , that worked,
I created a new messaging policy and enabled this setting. In out-of-the-box policy, that is turned off by default.I assigned it to one of my Teams Owners and the delete button is now visible.
- Hi, I also have the same issue to delete the Poll I create using forms in a wrong group chat
