Hello, I have a bunch of Windows systems where I installed 
windows_exporter. I forgot to exclude all the windows services which has 
created a lot of series in prometheus. Now I am trying to delete all of 
them.

I have tried 
curl -X POST -g '
http://localhost:9090/api/v1/admin/tsdb/delete_series?match[]={job=
"Windows"}' 
curl -XPOST 'http://localhost:9090/api/v1/admin/tsdb/clean_tombstones' 

The `/tsdb-status` still shows (https://imgur.com/jtAEAwX) all those 
series. But `topk(10, count by (__name__)({__name__=~".+"}))` does not show 
(https://imgur.com/V8zwWhh) them. 

Has the series been deleted or no? 
How do I update `/tsdb-status`? I have tried restarting prometheus.

The CPU and RAM consumption has gone up. I was also expecting it to go back 
down but it hasn't yet https://imgur.com/p4JVBGv
