Resolution

Since Delete option is grayed out due to Global GDPR being enabled in the instance or WFA Org, the following are your options:

1. Temporarily disable GDPR for the WFA Org in order to allow deletion, although this is not ideal.
Please refer to:
2789545 - Disallow/Disable User Maintenance Add, Edit and Delete if GDPR functionality enabled for instance

2. Instead of deleting the user, please change their role to one that has no access to anything.
