My credit expired and my subscription was deactivated. I just wanted to download my disk, is there any way to do that?
It just says "Exporting disks is only allowed when the virtual machine is deallocated, the disk is disconnected, or when the disk is not in the ReadyToUpload or ActiveUpload state."
Thank you

    @Paco , Can you try using Azure Storage explorer to download the vhd - https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/features/storage-explorer/#overview

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/disks-use-storage-explorer-managed-disks

    If that's not allowing you to download, then reach out to support team to activate your subscription.
