I have an issue that a lot of people already encountered related to delete a disk attached to an (already) deleted VM. I found plenty of post but it seems solution provided does not work anymore (maybe it worked in the past I mean).

OK I have dozen of link that i read from the beginning to the end but still desperate.
In a nutshell:
- The Virtual machine has been deleted via webportal. The deletion is confirmed via webportal and also after running powershell script Get-AzureVM
- The Service cloud has been deleted also .The deletion is confirmed via webportal and also after running powershell script.
- I used GUI tool such as Azure Explorer and lease the blob and also deleted the VHD
- From webportal 'Disk' the disk I want to remove cannot be deleted because 'delete' button is greyed
- I run powershell command below
Remove-AzureDisk -DiskName mydisknamehere -DeleteVHD
- Unfortunately it said that the disk is already used a virtual machine
- But the virtual machine has been deleted for a days ! (confirmed by command Get-AzureVM)
Some people said to wait because the lease can be long... the problem is that it last for 13 days now so I consider that something goes wrong.
I will happy if a Microsoft engineer can solve it 'magically' but I really need to solve by following exacts steps that I can reproduce anytime.
Thx for reading my post and hope someone can help me.
Kind regards,
