    @Ashutosh Kumar Thank you for contacting us on Microsoft Q&A platform. Happy to help!As per the error message above it seems you have Always on enabled on the vault. So, you would not be able to delete the vault from your end.

    You need to open a support ticket and seek help from support to ask backend team to disable Always On. Once that is done you would be able to delete the vault.
