Hi,

From the top of my head - if the machine is already removed from all jobs and all protection groups, please try to perform "Revoke" and "Remove" actions for that particular agent.

If that does not work, then please proceed to opening a support case as requested by Natalia.

Thanks!

Seems that the free case was closed without investigation. Asked support team to review it, stay tuned.
