Cannot access my Azure Portal after trying to remove old tenant

Question

Hi,

I tried to delete an old tenant following the instructions here:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/enterprise-users/directory-delete-howto#remove-enterprise-apps-that-you-cant-delete

Now, I can't login into my azure portal and get the following error:

AADSTS7000112: Application 'c44b4083-3bb0-49c1-b47d-974e53cbdf3c'(Azure Portal) is disabled.

I tried this but it neither works:

Get-MsolServicePrincipal -AppPrincipalId c44b4083-3bb0-49c1-b47d-974e53cbdf3c | Set-MsolServicePrincipal -AccountEnabled $true

Issue:
When trying to delete your old Azure AD tenant following our Delete a tenant in Azure Active Directory documentation, and after following the Remove enterprise apps that you can't delete section, you weren't able to login to the Azure Portal and received the AADSTS7000112: Application '.....974e53cbdf3c'(Azure Portal) is disabled error message.

Solution:
After many unsuccessful attempts Get-MsolServicePrincipal -AppPrincipalId ....974e53cbdf3c | Set-MsolServicePrincipal -AccountEnabled $true, finally succeeded and you're able to login into the Azure portal.

Thank you again for your time and patience throughout this issue!

Hi James,

Thank you for the answer.

Finally, after many unsuccesful attempts,

Get-MsolServicePrincipal -AppPrincipalId c44b4083-3bb0-49c1-b47d-974e53cbdf3c | Set-MsolServicePrincipal -AccountEnabled $true

finally worked and I'm able to login into the portal.

Clarity to Laurent Knafo fix in this article, that fixed my issue too. Thank You, good work.

First, this PS code fixed the issues I was having with unable to login to AZURE at https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/get-started/azure-portal. When I input my user id, I was not ever offered password input as expected, but the server was throwing this error.

Sorry, but we’re having trouble signing you in.
AADSTS7000112: Application 'c44b4083-3bb0-49c1-b47d-974e53cbdf3c'(Azure Portal) is disabled.

FIX
Run as administrator POWER SHELL

Ensure these command run to add azure support to PS.
  uninstall-module AzureAD (if previously installed)
  install-module AzureAD
  install-module AzureADPreview
  install-module MSOnline
  Connect-MsolService (Login to AZURE account)

  THE FOLLOWING PS SYNTAX WILL ENABLE THE DISABLED SECURITY PRINCIPAL AND ALLOWED ME TO LOGIN.

  Get-MsolServicePrincipal -AppPrincipalId c44b4083-3bb0-49c1-b47d-974e53cbdf3c | Set-MsolServicePrincipal -AccountEnabled $true

Many Thanks for this FIX.
