    Hi,

    It happens because you have opened a workspace in the GUI pointing to the repo you want to delete.
    To avoid the GUI starting showing multiple errors because the repo is missing, there is this limitation.

    You need to open the GUI (not this specific workspace) and this way, you should be able to delete the repo.

    Please let us know if it helps.

    Regards,
    Carlos.

    You can also delete a repo via CLI:
    cm repository delete --help
