I tried to delete my Azure subscription several times but unable to do so due to presence of two resources. The mentioned resources along with their resource groups have already been deleted but I can still see them via "Simplified View". I am sure they don't exist and it is some sort of bug.

Subscription is already disabled and will be deleted automatically after three months but I want to delete it now. Any help ...................

    I'd suggest simply leaving your subscription as is. There is no meaningful benefit to deleting resources in a disabled subscription

    Hey there Azhar

    Thanks for using QandA platform

    • The subscription is automatically deleted 90 days after you cancel a subscription.
    • You can also contact Microsoft Support to help you remove a subscription. However you must make sure that you don't need the subscription anymore because the process only allows seven days to reactivate the subscription.
    • If you have deleted all resources but the Delete your subscription page shows that you still have active resources, you might have active hidden resources. You can't delete a subscription if you have active hidden resources. To delete them, navigate to Subscriptions > select the subscription > Resources. At the top of the page, select Manage view and then select Show hidden types. Then, delete the resources.

    If this doesn't work I suggestyou to raise a support req and they will get this sorted.

    If this helps kindly accept the answer thanks much.
