Force delete Group Site Collection after Group Deleted?
I got confirmation that it was a 'bug' and a patch was applied and the issue is resolved for the most part. My ticket is still open as the Sites are still showing in my favorites, but if I click on the site of a delted group an error message is thrown.
So a follow up to my post. The site finaly did delete. It took about an hour before it deleted. Seems like it should be a little bit faster than that, more instant. However it still shows up in my list of SharePoint sites. Maybe that will disappear over time also.
- In my experience, it will never disappear from the list of followed SharePoint sites, unless you physically unfollow it (even if it has been deleted).
Its not ideal, but that has been the way it has always worked (at least in SharePoint Online)That's the odd thing. I did unfollow it but it still shows up on the the main SharePoint page as one of the sites that I follow. Maybe in time it will go away.
We have the same situation with groups being apended with other numbers and are looking to tidy up these groups. Interestingly trying to use the delete option and despite being Global Admin and Sharepoint Admin I am refused permission to the site.
Has anyone experienced this or do I need to be Exchange Admin to acheve this deletion ?
