Just to follow up, I opened a support case with MS, got a response very quickly actually. However neither of the two agents I’ve had contact with had any explanation.

Meanwhile, search is now working (presumably because the new folders have now been indexed) and everything *appears* to be working as expected. 10 days on, and it’s still Finalizing!! 😂

We have two support tickets with MS, one with regards to Viva Engage and another Mass Delete Policies, all of which have been with MS support for weeks (Engage over a month). Guess the support folk don't always know how the products really work 🤣
