OK, I see what you mean, try the 'menu key' [1] then.

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).

Cristian
