A colleague created a private group and added me. Before he left the company our O365 admin set me up as a group admin in that group. So my group status changed from Member to Owner.
Since Group Life Cycle Management is not available I have to do it manually. So I decided to delete this group in web outlook. However, the only option I have is to leave the group and not to delete it. If i click on leave group I get an error message telling me that I am the only member left and I should change a member to owner... It doesn't make any sense.
Is this a bug? Usually you get to delete a group as an owner. In this case, it is not possible due to a private group? The workaround is to call our O365 Admin and make him delete this unused group in the admin portal...

Seems to be a bug IMHO...adding @cfiessinger

It worked. I tried to leave the group (as the only member) which caused an error message. Then I realized that the option for deleting a group is hidden within the settings - edit group. It would be more intuitive to place it in the settings.
Thank you
