Force delete allows you to forcefully delete your **Uniform** virtual machine scale sets, reducing delete latency and immediately freeing up attached resources. . 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.

For data disks that were explicitly created and attached to the VMs, you can modify this property to ‘Detach’ instead of ‘Delete’ if you want the disks to persist after the VM is deleted.
