Cannot Delete Lakehouse Issue
Update: If I first delete the one-time pipeline used to populate the Lakehouse, I'm able to delete the Lakehouse. It's like Fabric sees that something is connected to the Lakehouse and won't let me delete it. Is this expected behavior?
I tested again by creating a Lakehouse with a copy data pipeline, and a completely blank Lakehouse. The blank Lakehouse deleted with no problem. The other lakehouse would not delete until I deleted the associated pipeline first.

Hi Anonymous ,
Thanks for using Fabric Community.
Yes it is as per design in order to prevent the deletion of services when there are dependent items.
Hope this is helpful. Please let me know incase of any queries.I have the same issue, can't delete lakehouse but there is no active dataflows for it.
Same issue for me too. I removed all lakehouses in my notebooks and then I was able to delete the renamed lakhouse.
