Issue with Governing Multiple AWS Regions Using Control Tower

Question

Hi,

I have deployed AWS Control Tower in the Mumbai region and now wish to govern additional regions: Hyderabad, Tokyo, and North Virginia. However, when attempting to update the Control Tower, I encounter the error stating that the AWS Config delivery already exists. Following AWS documentation, I deleted the Config delivery channels, but the same error persists when I try to update the Control Tower again.
Please find the image below.

You deleted the Config delivery channels but now error shows that Config Configuration Recorder exists. Please follow the next document:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/controltower/latest/userguide/troubleshooting.html#aws-config-error

Delete the configuration recorder and delivery channel in all supported regions. Disabling AWS Config is not enough, the configuration recorder and delivery channel must be deleted by means of the CLI.

View commands:
```
aws configservice describe-delivery-channels
aws configservice describe-delivery-channel-status
aws configservice describe-configuration-recorders
```

The normal response is something like "name": "default"

Delete commands:

```
aws configservice stop-configuration-recorder --configuration-recorder-name NAME-FROM-DESCRIBE-OUTPUT
aws configservice delete-delivery-channel --delivery-channel-name NAME-FROM-DESCRIBE-OUTPUT
aws configservice delete-configuration-recorder --configuration-recorder-name NAME-FROM-DESCRIBE-OUTPUT
```
