    Trying to delete language - "Cannot remove language ... because it's attached to a domain on a node"

    In our Umbraco backend, we have a single home content node that is set to the "en" culture. In the Languages section of Settings, we have a lot of languages listed, a number of which we don't actually need. I'd like to delete some of them, but when I try this I get the following message in the error log:

    "Cannot remove language [whatever language I tried] because it's attached to a domain on a node"

    But there's nothing under Content that has that language attached. Unless this is referring to something else that I'm not aware of.

    I had the same problem, so I found that I am using another language into a domain.

    So I resolved my problem by going to;

    Content -> Home -> Actions -> Culture and Hostmanes

    Then I deleted domain entry which was using the other language, clicked on Save.

    Once this domain entry which was using the other language removed from the database, I was able to delete the other language.

    If you have database access then you can also query to see which domain is using which language / culture;

    select * from [dbo].[umbracoDomains]

    Have you checked the delete bin if there are any items there that still have the language attached? Just tested that can be a reason why you cant delete a language.

    I am facing the same issue. I don't have language attached to any domain any node, even though it not allowing me to delete the language. I even clean the recycle bin and then tried to delete the language but not worked.
