  3. Remove all members from the team

    • In the upper-right corner, click Management Console to open the administration page.

    • Go to Team Management. Select the target team and remove all members.

  4. Delete the corresponding team drive

    • Go to Storage Management > Team Drive Management.

    • Find the team drive associated with the team and delete it.

  5. Try to delete the team again

    • Ensure that you have completed all the previous steps.
