Accidentally deleted certain device in azure and Entra

Hi @Nash Teh,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Q&A.

There is no option to recover deleted device in Entra ID. Recycle bin is not yet supported and you can’t recover deleted devices. If you are trying recover and login to any of the Entra ID joined device you can try to follow below steps,

I understand that you are trying to recover deleted device in Entra admin center.

Follow the below steps:

1.Open the command prompt as an administrator

2.Enter dsregcmd /forcerecovery (You need to be an administrator to perform this action).

3.Click “Sign in” in the dialog that opens up and continue with the sign in process.

4.Sign out and sign in back to the device to complete the recovery.
