UserDisabled

What it means

The user account is disabled.

How to fix it

Check whether that's intended (a leaver, or HR-driven provisioning) before re-enabling.

How to investigate

  1. Confirm which account the user actually signed in with. A personal account or the wrong tenant causes many of these.
  2. Check the user object: enabled, licensed, in the right tenant, and with no recent password change or reset.
  3. Look at the sign-in logs over a few days for a pattern, such as repeated failures from one IP address.
  4. Search the sign-in logs for the request ID or correlation ID from the troubleshooting details on the error page.
