You can turn your "Switch mode" to interface using the following
config system global
set internal-switch-mode interface
end
On some units, the default is to group interfaces in to a switch.

Normally you should be able to remove it by clicking the small X when you mouse over the interface. Does this not appear/work?
Which browser are you using? I recommend using Firefox
The X is not showing when I try to remove it. But I'm able to add other interfaces. I have tried using Safari and Google Chrome.

in case you'd like to solve this via the CLI:
config system switch-interface
edit internal // your switch name
set member internal1 // List of interfaces you'd like to remain
next
end
Hi,
did you check if it's in use somewhere? As long as there's an entry referring to this interface you can't remove it. The easiest way: Check your config with an editor and have a search for 'internal7' ...

The reason is that a hardware-switch needs at least 2 port members. Unless you kill the switch in CLI you won't get at the second member port. I'm in the same position as you both, and am still looking for the correct way to solve this (due to lack of time).
Hmmm ... so the only way ist to schedule a downtime - edit the config by hand - and upload it again ... :(

Kind of.
The "switch" is a virtual object, called a virtual-switch. It contains at least one hardware switch called a physical-switch. to get hold of all interfaces you can delete the virtual-switch:
config system virtual-switch
edit "internal"
set physical-switch "sw0"
config port
edit "internal1"
next
edit "internal2"
next
end
next
end
So here you enter 'delete internal' to delete the virtual-switch. In order to do this, first all references to 'internal' have to be removed from the config. At that point I just let it be.
Remember that even the default config (after 'exec factoryreset') has references to 'internal', such as a static route, a DHCP server and a policy. So this is something you better do at the very beginning of configuration.
