We currently have an old sharepoint site under the url: https://companyname.sharepoint.com This site has the old 2013 sharepoint layout which we are trying to get rid of
We also have a new modern group site with the following url: https://companyname.sharepoint.com/sites/newgroupsite Is it possible to change this one to be the new root site under the url: https://companyname.sharepoint.com
If it is not possible to do a change like this can i simply delete the old root site and then create a new one with the modern layout? or would deleting the root site delete all other sites and groups under https://companyname.sharepoint.com/[what ever here onwards]
