Explanation
Cloud platforms such as Azure support resource locks (e.g., 'CanNotDelete' or 'ReadOnly' locks) that prevent accidental deletion or modification of resources. If two VMs have a delete lock applied, any attempt to delete them will fail with an error. Removing the lock first allows the deletion to proceed normally. Removing snapshots (A) might be needed if snapshot dependencies block deletion, but a lock is the more direct cause of a deletion error for just some resources. Removing IP addresses (B) or moving from a resource group (C) would not resolve a lock-based deletion error.
