I also am unable to remove the backup agents. I do not get any option other than Pin to dashboard for the Backup Items (Azure Backup Agent) TAB. Then if I try to delete the Protected Server, I enter the name of the server, but the DELETE function is always greyed out. Therefore I can't do anything. It's been a few months that I have been getting charged for a service that I'm not using. Today I will try to forcibly remove using powershell ! crossing fingers !

I cannot delete anything on the Backup Items (Azure Backup Agent) list.
When trying to delete the server when I click the delete button it asks me to confirm, by typing the name of the server, and then when I click ok on the form it closes and nothing else happens.
