I encountered the following error after logging into Azure with my student certification:

Error message: interaction_required: AADSTS5000225: This tenant has been blocked due to inactivity. To learn more about tenant lifecycle policies, see https://aka.ms/TenantLifecycle

I have checked my email, but there are no related notifications.

How can I resolve this issue?

    Hello lateautumn,

    This issue will be resolved by signing in using the tenant-specific Azure portal URL and the tenant ID I have provided over the private messages tab:

    https://portal.azure.com/<tenant-ID>

    Once you accessed the portal through the tenant-scoped URL, the tenant became active again and you will be able to manage resources without further issues.

    And the tenant will be restored successfully.
