If you are an Office 365 admin, you have
to delete a user account when required. Suppose if an employee leaves your
organization, you have to delete his user account. Once you will delete his
user account, other people can’t be able to use his account. You assign a
license to that user to use certain features of Setup Office 365. Office 365 licenses
associated with the user account also become free once you delete the account. But you don’t use their data even if their
account is deleted. You can use OneDrive to store your data in the cloud. You
can also reassign a licence without deleting the related user account.
1.
Sign in to
Office 365 with your work or school
account.
2.
Go to the Office 365 admin centre.
3.
Go to Users > Active Users.
4.
Choose the names of the users that you want to delete, and then select DELETE.
5.
In the confirmation box, select Yes.
Once you will delete any user account, the account becomes inactive. If you want to restore any deleted user account, you can restore it within 30 days of deletion.
How to
Restore any User account
1.
Go to Users > Active Users > Deleted users.
2.
On the Deleted users page, choose the names of the users that you
want to restore, and then select Restore users.
3.
In the confirmation box, select Close.
If you are unable to restore two or more user accounts at the
same time, you can view the log to see which one is not stored. Then you can
restore the failed user account individually.
Still you need any more help? Please feel free to contact the
undersigned.
