To better understand and isolate the issue, could you please help with the following details:
- Can you provide the full error message or code returned when the deletion fails?
- Which tool or interface did you use to delete the resource group, and could you share the exact commands or steps?
- Are there any lingering Resource Mover artifacts (mover resource, move collections) still listed in Azure Resource Mover, and have you checked their provisioning state? Thanks
