REPORTS: Unable to delete Reports Folder even if empty.

Summary:

Content (please ensure you mask any confidential information):

Hi support

we are trying to delete report folders which contain reports or are empty, but we get this error:

You cannot delete a folder that contains subfolders, forms, dashboards, infolet, reports , or documents, You must empty the folder before deleting it.

I guess this is for security reason, but I do not understand why we cannot delete an empty folder.

Is there a way to set these reports folders to delete and supersede this limitation / access permission?

I understand if the reports had a different owner, but if the user deleting the reports folders is an Admin user and has Write access then they should be able to delete the folder with its content.
