One of our Azure AD user's Win 10 device was deleted from Azure by accident. The user account is still working, but user can not log on to that Win 10 device to re-register the device. How can the user log on to Win 10 in order to re-register the device with Azure AD?

    @SGelb2001 Thanks for reaching out.

    In this case, please use the local admin to login and register the account once again. If the device was deleted from azure portal, Azure AD wont recognize that device anymore so there wont be any successful login from that device. This is expected. (You can compare this with removing a machine from local AD, no onprem user will be able to login there).

    Once you join the device again via Start - settings - account - Access work or school Account, you should be able to login again.
