    The error message you are encountering, AADSTS5000225, indicates that your tenant has been blocked due to inactivity. This typically happens when a configured tenant is no longer in use, and it helps to reduce unnecessary expenses. To resolve this issue, you have a couple of options:

    1. Reactivation: If you are the tenant administrator, you can request to reactivate your tenant within 20 days of it entering an inactive state. After this period, the tenant will be deleted and cannot be recovered.
    2. Contact Support: You can reach out to Microsoft support for assistance in reactivating your tenant. Make sure not to submit multiple requests while waiting for a response on your existing case.

    If you do not plan to reactivate your tenant, be aware that it will be deleted after 20 days of inactivity.

    For further guidance, you may want to review Microsoft's tenant lifecycle policies.
