Can't delete LR CC library

After experimenting with LR CC + 1Tb I decided to downgrade to 20Gb bundle because of issues with sync speed and high resource usage. I now need to delete all the photos which were uploaded to CC but can't find a way to do it. There's an option inside LR Classic preferences to delete the CC library but I found that only the Cancel button is active - the Delete button is greyed out.

Does anyone know how to do this. ?

    As long as you're happy you have all of your photos in Classic, go to https://lightroom.adobe.com > click the LR icon top left > Account Settings > Delete Lightroom Catalog.

      Just to update this. The Lightroom icon on the top left now does nothing. To access Account settings, you need to click on the avatar button on the top right > Account Info > Delete Lightroom Catalog.

       

      Deleting files using Lightroom for mobile didn't work for me. I had to do via web as described above.
