Any idea why ? I guess that it's still referenced by something. A category can be deleted if it's referenced by: - transactions - accounts - schedules - budgets So that leaves you with: - institutions - payees - reports - securities - currencies - prices - tags I would check if a payee has a reference to that category (default category assignment).
