  Remove Associations:
  
  If you find that the selection profile is indeed linked to the layout set or profile, you will need to either:
  
  Modify the layout set/profile to remove the association with the selection profile.
  Delete or change the layout set/profile if it is no longer needed.
  
  
  
  
  
  Delete/Modify the Selection Profile:
  
  Once you have removed the associations, you should be able to delete or modify the selection profile without encountering the error.
