Can't remove site
Hi
I have a site collection I can't get rid of - I see it in the deleted site Recycle bin - but can't delete it from the new SP admin center nor with Powershell (remove-spodeletedsite)
It's not shown in the classic admin (and its a classic site not comm site)
but if I do a get-sposite its there - but can't remove it with Powershell - remove-sposite -identity ....
So how do I get rid of the ghosted/corrupted site?

- Do you have any Add-in or SPFx WebPart installed in your sites? If so, that's probably the reason you are nont being able to remove the App Catalog...Might I ask why you want to delete it?
wrong URL - among other issues :)
only have the root site - and no spfx
- it's funny - I can see it's in the Site recycle bin - but can't delete it ... I can't restore it either
PowerShell tells me it's not in the Recycle bin - but when browsing to it - it's not available ??
Can't create a new App Catalog either nor point it to the URL ...remove-spodeletedssite gives me "unable to find the deleted site: ........"
....so a bit stuck - can of cause wait 30 days - then it should remove it self - but that doesn't change that the site are at the get-SPOsite list...
Taen kerenHave you gotten far with this? I have a similar issue. For me, I can access the site even if it's in the recycle bin, but it's not in the site collection list. If I went to the recycle bin to permanently delete it, there are no buttons to do it and it would only give me Restore.
