Cant remove ressources

Question

Hi, i had for testing purposes a Workspace instance running. Now i tried to remove the directory . When i want to delete the directory i need to delete first the networkcards. When i try to detach the card it says "Error detaching network interface  
eni-abcdefg: You do not have permission to access the specified resource.".   
When i try to delete the security group it says:   
"Note that the following security groups cannot be deleted:  
These security groups are associated with one or more network interfaces. Delete the network interfaces, or associate them with different security groups. View your network interfaces.  
sg-1234- d-abcfeg_controllers"  
  
So what can i do?  
  
Best wishes,  
Robert

Hi Robert,  
  
In order to delete the ENIs and security groups used by the directory, you need to delete the directory first. If you receive an error deleting a directory then please make sure that no AWS applications are enabled for the directory by following the steps in this link:  
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/directoryservice/latest/admin-guide/simple_ad_delete.html  
  
After deleting the directory, you should be able to delete the ENIs and security groups belonging to the directory.  
  
Thanks,
