Thanks Willem

Needed to give the containing folder extra rights (Everyone - full control). This allowed for deletion of the portals.

If you do this make sure to set the rights back afterwards. Not sure why, never seen this issue. Maybe something deep in .net in combination with iis automatic users?

Upgrade from 804 to 921 did not help solving the portal deletion issue
