By Impran M N
Dead project boards left sitting in your dashboard can clutter your organization and eat into storage limits. This guide covers permanently deleting a Microsoft Loop workspace from the home dashboard, what the confirmation warning means, and what to do if a deletion doesn't seem to take.
01Open your dashboard
Go to loop.cloud.microsoft and click the top left Loop logo to access your master workspace directory.
02Find the workspace to remove
Move your cursor over the target workspace tile inside your dashboard view.
03Open the options menu
Click the three dots icon that appears on the tile to open the context menu drawer.
04Select Delete
Choose the Delete command from the dropdown to trigger the confirmation warning box.
05Confirm the deletion
Double-check your project assets, then click the red Delete button to permanently erase the workspace.
06Refresh if the tile is still showing
If the deleted workspace still appears due to caching, run a quick page refresh to update your dashboard grid.
Frequently asked questions
Is deleting a workspace reversible?
Deleting a workspace is a permanent action, so it's important to review its contents before confirming.
Why can't I delete a shared team workspace?
Team-shared or corporate tenant-locked directories often require admin approval before they can be permanently erased.
Why does the workspace still show up after I deleted it?
This is usually a caching issue — refreshing the page typically clears it from the dashboard view.
Does deleting a workspace free up storage space?
Yes, cleaning up orphaned workspaces helps prevent running into personal account storage caps.
