My users are confused and complaining, please fix this. Also, the link still works (leads to a 404). The least MS could do is catch those 404's and redirect to root or something. Very ugly!

Agreed!! Microsoft get this fixed. Deleted sites or groups should not have an image or icon show in any of the "Dashboards", get on this now!!
Without this clearing old junk your program is a mess!! -

This has been an issue on UserVoice for over two years without resolution, and even deleting the entire SharePoint team site instance doesn't clear this out. Please fix this ASAP as it is confusing for end-users to be shown links that do not work.

Please allow users to edit their frequent sites list. I have a site that is no longer necessary and I don't like it showing up on my page.

This is a pain for organizations to have sites that are no longer available to show up. End users then think something is broken. Consequently, they submit an email to their internal Help Desk. Which in turn needs to look and see what the problem is. Lots of internal man hours are spent on resolving and calming internal end users.
This needs to be addressed. ML doesn't get the impact to a business when deleted sites are still showing up in the SharePoint page. Beside Mr Gates is no longer involved in day to day business of Microsoft. His Foundation is working on the vaccines which are very important.

When are you likely to start working on a fix - it is ridiculous that deleted sites appear on the frequent sites page years after they have been deleted

ML commented
Sorry Mr. Gates, stop working on vaccines and put your head down get this clear button fixed.

Two years in and this is still an issue? This is not a feature request, this is a break fix. It is simply not acceptable for a professional organization to have 404 links on their SharePoint sites. I'm wondering if MS even monitors these posts.

Deleted sites should not be showing up on frequent and recent tiles in the Sharepoint Online Homepage. It is very confusing. The URL of the deleted site should also be available for recycle use once authorized by the admin.

Delve is as far as stupid also.
All documents previously located in a deleted O365 group, still remain as 'Recent' files in my Profile !! -:( -
Christophe LYONNET commented
A delete site should not be any more visible in Frequent and Recent tiles. Can MS do this?
If such simple request cannot be taken into account, how can we trust later on other devices like Delve", which is expected to be an 'AI' -:(

Her Dr Panda, you might want to recheck Outlook 2016 as you absolutely can drag and drop attachments directly from Outlook.

Dr. Panda commented
Admit it Microsoft, you are just lazy and lame to offer this very simple fix. the sharepoint system is totally crazy and unituitive with endless opening tabs. And you cannot even drag and drop attachments directly from outlook (= a Microsoft product!) without having to save it to desktop first. MICROSOFT = LAZY AND INCOMPETENT

I have a site I deleted 1 year ago. It is still in my frequent sites list. Maybe an explanation on why we cannot clean up recent / frequent would satisfy some.

To not be able to "DELETE" and "REMOVE" folders from frequent list is absurd. MSFT, a TTL of 72-144 hours is sufficient to keep alive a folder. i find many of your support links inaccurate in direction including simple things like adding a signature. If it were not for one other Chief, i would be using Google Apps all day long

Please give users the power to remove links to sites (at times not existent) from the frequent list!

What impression you want to provide to your users by introducing such polling? Does this mean that Microsoft needs to do a referendum to fix a technical glitch or their technical team does not have a capacity to fix this bug??? What a great inconvenience it is for users!! Please enable your users to remove the site completely on their discretion.

This suggestion have over 200+ is it so difficult to code a button to reset the frequent sites?

It is not intuitive what the frequent site box color code are for. It is not intuitive that the sort order is. It is not intuitive what the refresh frequency is, when does a frequent site get added or removed. MS needs to allow removals.
