Accidentally retired a device from Intune

Question

I accidentally pressed 'Retire' instead of 'Wipe' in Intune and I cannot log back into my device even with correct password. Since everything connected via Intune and Company Portal (AAD Joined), I want to know what's the best way to get back into my laptop and would I lose any personal files etc? I'm really in a panic about this and any help is appreciated so much before I attempt anything.

Thank You

Answer 1

@Darragh Martin, Thanks for posting in Q&A. For retire action, it removes managed app data, settings, and email profiles that were assigned by using Intune. The device is removed from Intune management. It will not remove any personal data. After the device is retired, you can use local account to login the device. Here is a link list the information which will be removed on windows devices when doing retire:

Hope the above information can help.
