Simply cannot delete a section break. It is impossible. Cannot be done. Please prove me wrong.
I'm having this same issue of not being able to remove a Section Break. I've tried multiple methods. Nothing is working. Shift plus Right Arrow is also not working, unfortunately. SamHart
In Word for Windows, do the following: Switch to Draft view (View tab > Draft) and display nonprinting characters (for example by pressing Ctrl+Shift+8). You should be able to select and Cut or Delete the section break.
P.S. If your document is protected in some way, the steps will be less straightforward. Also notice that limited versions of Word, such as the browser version, have limited support for section breaks and section formatting.
I had the same thing and I was tracking changes....
So turn off track changes!

BenNZ,
You don't have to turn off Track Changes. You may have to Accept a change that you make, though.
