The error message specifically states that the color scheme you are trying to delete (denoted as &1) cannot be deleted because it is currently being used in a layout (denoted as &2).
  Cause:

  If the layout is no longer needed, you can delete it.
  If the layout is still required, you can modify it to use a different color scheme instead of the one you are trying to delete.
  
  
  
  Delete the Color Scheme: Once you have ensured that the color scheme is no longer in use by any layout, you can proceed to delete the color scheme.
