Planner Tasks cannot be deleted or edited.
Hi,
After deleting a group to which a plan is assigned, two tasks remain in the task list. These can no longer be edited or deleted. Restoring the group was possible, but did not provide a solution.
The plan ID of the originally linked plan is different from that of the restored plan.
I have tried the following without success:
Delete in the Planner Chrome-Edge Browser Desktop /iPhone
Delete in Planner Safari Browser Desktop /iPhone
Delete in Teams Desktop /Web / Mobile
Delete in ToDo App
Error message:
"Only members of the Office 365 group can delete tasks. Technical details".
What else can I do to delete these tasks?
Regards Siggi

- Najmi6240Copper ContributorHi,
Actually, if you open My Tasks in outlook, you can see the task that you created in microsoft team is there, and you can delete it from there. - Siegfried BaldaufCopper Contributor
I don't know what was going on in the background, but after 48h I could suddenly delete the tasks today.

I did several plans for training. Deleted the plans with acknowledging task will also be deleted, but tasks did not delete and I cannot delete now. In the My Tasks, sort by plan … it has a column for each of the deleted plans saying "Former plan". tyger

I have restored the group that was deleted but I guess as the plan within the group is permanently deleted, the task is orphaned and inaccessible.
