Inability to delete a tab from a meeting?

I am the meeting organizer.  I added a OneNote tab, but realized that the OneNote I chose is not accessible to everyone in the meeting.  (I chose a OneNote in a SharePoint site that not all attendees have access to.)
So I moved the OneNote content to a common SharePoint location.  I have confirmed that my attendees can access it.  "Good!"  But I don't have an option to remove the previous OneNote tab I added.  "Not good!"

Is it expected behavior that once a tab is added to a meeting, there's no way to remove it?  Unlike tabs in a channel where you can simply right-click and remove it, the only option on a meeting tab (created by me) is "Copy".  🤔

    Yes, it was very strange that I didn't have the arrow.  But now I do... WTF??? 🤷🏻‍:male_sign:
    I dunno... "Case closed"???

    Andre_LeBlanc I had the same issue and figured that you need to actually first click on the tab to open the onenote, then the arrow will show up with the delete option available... SOOO unintuitive...

     

    Hope this helps! 😄

    Andre_LeBlanc this is exactly what i'm going through today.  Did it just fix itself?  I've unfortunately put confidential notes in to the wrong meeting and need this remove function now!

     

    Can anyone help?  Pernille-Eskebo anyone...eek

      Yes, it eventually fixed itself.
      For your immediate need of removing notes... just copy & paste them into the correct meeting, and simply delete the text in the incorrect meeting.  The tab will still exist, but at least it'll be empty.

        Andre_LeBlanc Thanks for taking the time to reply.  It's actually a one note notebook.  I can't even find out now how to delete the book.  It may be permissions related, but it's certainly frustrating and a bit scary TBH.  Looks like it might be a bug, not sure.

      If that is the header from a meeting, then "Yes, you are correct." In my picture above, (you need to click to enlarge it, and then click fullscreen option), when I right-click on it, it only gives the [grayed out] "Copy" option. Makes no sense to me. Hence why I'm here. 😄

        Just tried the same thing with a different meeting. This time, I chose a Form (poll).
        Got the same result. I can add it, but I can't remove it.
