Unable to access my Azure tenant because it has been blocked due to inactivity (AADSTS5000225).

Question

Tenant ID: [Moderator note: personal info removed] 

I am unable to access my Azure tenant because it has been blocked due to inactivity (AADSTS5000225).

The tenant is associated with my personal Microsoft account (@outlook.com), but I cannot sign in using that account because the tenant is inactive.

I am contacting support from a different account. Please help reactivate the tenant or guide me through recovery.

I can verify ownership if required.

Hi @Geetha Cugati Nagaraju, 

Thank you for posting your question on the Microsoft Q&A forum. 

Regarding that you couldn't access your azure tenant because it has been blocked due to inactivity. 

In this situation, you’ll need to open a Microsoft Support ticket so that a support engineer can verify the tenant status and assist you with restoring access. This issue requires backend verification, which can only be handled by the Microsoft Support team.  

For additional assistance, use this link to find the appropriate contact number: Global Customer Service phone numbers - Microsoft Support     

Please note that forum moderators have no control over user accounts, especially when it comes to logging in to your account, resetting your password, changing your access, etc.    

Apologies for redirecting you to the related development team support as the moderators in this community have limited resources to check the backend information, and to get the fast and better assistance we requested for it.   

Thank you again for your time and understanding. While my initial response may not resolve the issue immediately, I’d like to gather more details about your situation so I can assist you more effectively.             

I really appreciate your patience, and I’m here to help. Looking forward to your response.
