I have a tenant Tag which I am unable to delete. I have even tried cloning my VM and deleting all Variable Sets, Releases, Tenants and Projects so there is absolutely nothing left for it to be associated with and I still cannot delete. I get the message “You appear to be removing an existing tag. This action will fail if the tag is already in use.”
I’ve noticed there is a closed issue which looks similar
You won’t be able to remove the tenant tag If you have a release that reference it. If the release is the current deployed version, you will need to wait until it becomes non current and get cleaned up by the retention policy, if it is not the current version, I would suggest to look into your retention policy to check if it is still being kept.
I’ve even tried cloning my VM and deleting all Variable Sets, Releases, Tenants and Projects so there is absolutely nothing left and I still cannot delete.
Should deleting all the releases have also removed the snapshots?

I suspect that you might just see the first client side warning message as the screenshot attached, this message will show whenever you click on the delete button of a tag regardless of if it is being referenced else where or not, can you please try to click on Save button and see what the system actually comes back with?
If still cannot delete it by clicking on the Save button, the server should send back a more details message to tell what actually referenced it. FYI, certificate, deployment target and account can reference a tag.
When I click Save I then get a second error (see attached).
I am 100% sure I am not using the Tag in any Variable Sets. As discussed I event tried cloning my VM and deleting all Variable Sets, Releases, Tenants and Projects so there was nothing left (almost a clean install) and I still got the same message.

I think there might be a snapshot in VariableSet that referenced the tag, so can you please try to use Chrome and browse to the tenant tag set that with the target tenant tag, attached is the screenshot that from my machine, it highlights how to get the URL to the tenant tag set, place it in the browser, you should get a json document back something similar to this one
In this sample, TagSets-2/Tags-3 is the tag id that I am looking for, you then can run a SQL script by using the id as below to find the record that referenced it SELECT * FROM dbo.[VariableSet] WHERE RelatedDocumentIds LIKE '%TagSets-2/Tags-3%'
If you get record from the script and you no longer need it, you can just delete it and try to remove the tenant tag again. This is related to the issue that you mentioned earlier, we will try to fix it in the near future.
