First, I suggest you check that all photos have downloaded to your Lr-Classic catalog and the files reside on your hard-drive- click on the [Cloud] icon to check sync status, then if syncing is complete-

Go to lightroom.adobe.com, and click on your ID icon in the top-right corner and choose "Account Info". You'll see an option labelled "Delete Lightroom Library" which will delete everything from the cloud.

To clarify, I want to delete everything in the cloud storage and nothing from my hard drive where I prefer to work in LR Classic CC. This cloud storage seems impossible to delete. No delete option appears unless I go photo by photo with some 28k photos, an impossibly long and tedious task.

Many thanks, WobertC! I have now successfully deleted everything from cloud
storage. All my 58k photos are accessible in Lightroom Classic CC on my
external 2 TB flash drive, another external HD backup and in Backblaze
cloud storage. I assume I have 20 GB of Adobe cloud storage available for
Adobe Premiere Rush projects.

BTW, I don't understand why, if Rush is now part of the CC subscription I
get only three exports. Can you help on this too?

Best regards,

Peter
