Force delete allows you to forcefully delete your virtual machine, reducing delete latency and immediately freeing up attached resources. For VMs that do not require graceful shutdown, Force Delete will delete the VM as fast as possible while relieving the logical resources from the VM, bypassing the graceful shutdown and some of the cleanup operations. Force Delete will not immediately free the MAC address associated with a VM, as this is a physical resource that may take up to 10 min to free. If you need to immediately re-use the MAC address on a new VM, Force Delete is not recommended. Force delete should only be used when you are not intending to re-use virtual hard disks. You can use force delete through Portal, CLI, PowerShell, and REST API.
