I have been trying for some time to delete a virtual network (classic). So far, I have not been successful using the portal; PowerShell or cli. It is the only resourceAzureVN in the only resourcegroup Default-Networking in the subscription.
I have searched the web and have tried a number of proposed solutions without success.
Here's the resource that won't go away:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Get-AzureRmResourceName : AzureVN
ResourceId : /subscriptions/<Sub ID>.../resourceGroups/Default-Networking/providers/Microsoft.ClassicNetwork/virtualNetworks/AzureVN
ResourceName : AzureVN
ResourceType : Microsoft.ClassicNetwork/virtualNetworks
ResourceGroupName : Default-Networking
Location : westeurope
SubscriptionId : <Sub ID>...PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Get-AzureRmResource -Name AzureVN -ResourceType Microsoft.ClassicNetwork/virtualNetworks -ResourceGroup Default-NetworkingName : AzureVN
ResourceId : /subscriptions/<Sub ID>.../resourceGroups/Default-Networking/providers/Microsoft.ClassicNetwork/virtualNetworks/AzureVN
ResourceName : AzureVN
ResourceType : Microsoft.ClassicNetwork/virtualNetworks
ResourceGroupName : Default-Networking
Location : westeurope
SubscriptionId : <Sub ID>...
Properties : @{provisioningState=Succeeded; status=Created; siteId=58c18955-0af4-40b2-aab0-0fdc4eef1949;
inUse=True; addressSpace=; subnets=System.Object[]}Note that Properties includes inUse=True. However, I am not aware of anything which could be using it.
Attempt to remove it:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Remove-AzureRmResource -ResourceId "/subscriptions/<Sub ID>.../resourceGroups/Default-Networking/providers/Microsoft.ClassicNetwork/virtualNetworks/AzureVN"
-Force
Remove-AzureRmResource : The pipeline has been stopped.

Any suggestions on how to make this virtual network go away?
