I made a team with 5 channels to test how it all works.
Then I deleted the team in Teams, but in SharePoint (webbrowser) the team and the channels are still visible.

How can I delete it all?

    Hi there Sif S,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community

    I'm Bobadoye and I'd be happy to help you out with your question.

    To fix the issue, rename the folder in the modern experience of the SharePoint library. Renaming the folder triggers the Delete option to appear.

    • Select the "More actions" (three dots) icon next to the folder, and select Rename.
    • Type a new name for the folder, and select Rename.
    • Select the "More actions" icon again. The Delete option should now appear.
    • Select Delete to delete the folder.

    Best Regards,
