# Approving the Deletion of a Backup Location With Backup Data

When a user deletes a backup location with backup data, the deletion must be approved by the administrator users for the deletion to take effect.

If the storage creator is a company user, the users of the Tenant Admin user group become the default administrators. If the storage creator is not a company user, the users of Master user group become the default administrators. The administrator users receive an email notification to approve or deny the deletion. The deletion must be approved by at least one administrator.

You can use the DeleteLibraryMountPathAuthorization workflow to change the administrators who can approve the deletion from default user groups to another users or user groups and to specify the approvers count. The requestor is not considered as one of the administrators to approve the deletion.

#### Procedure

1. Open the email notification received for the deletion of a backup location with backup data.

2. Perform one of the following:

   - To approve the deletion, click the Accept link in the email, and then complete the subsequent steps.

   - To deny the deletion, click the Deny link in the email, and then complete the subsequent steps.
