How do i delete (or remove me from) the 'microsoft' tenant

Question

For some reason, in my 'switch directories' blade in azure, i see a 'Microsoft' Tenant listed. The tenant actually seems to be a 'microsoft owned' tenant. (id 72f988bf-86f1-41af-91ab-2d7cd011db47).

I assume i was added there once because of the MVP program or related stuff - i am not sure where this tenant is coming from. Using my access rights, when listing the resources, none are listed. However, a tenant without resources is creating problems for several scripts. Thus, i would like to remove this tenant from the list of 'my' tenants or remove me from this tenant.

I found this related ( How to delete azure tenant? ) stackoverflow question. The advice is to select the tenant and press "delete". When i do this, i end up in some kind of never-ending-loging loop. Of course, i also should not be able to delete this tenant, as i never created it.

Also, i tried the "leave tenant" button. This opens a "sing in" message which does not accept my credentials.

How do i get rid of that tenant?

It sounds like you previously tried to leave the tenant using the "leave tenant" button in the Microsoft Entra portal. Please try these steps to leave the tenant:

• Turn off all incognito or private session on your browser.
• Start a new incognito or private session on your browser.
• Copy this URL https://myaccount.microsoft.com/?tenant=microsoft.onmicrosoft.com to your private browser.
• Login with your Hotmail account.
• If you land on the My Access page, click your account avatar on the top right corner and click View Account.
• Find the Organizations section and click Manage Organizations.
• In the Organizations page, you will find the associated organization of your personal account here.
• If the administrator of this organization allows guest users to leave on their own, you will see a Leave button on the right side. If not, you have to contact the admin of this organization to manually remove you.
• Click Leave.
• You can follow the picture below for reference:

If this doesn't work we can have a remote session go over this.

I found your account in the tenant (assuming it's the same one in your username), and I created an internal support request to help remove it.

I'll update this post once the request processes.

Thanks for letting us know!
