Remarks:
- You need to be a global administrator or cloud device administrator in Azure AD to enable / disable a device.
- Disabling a device prevents a device from successfully authenticating with Azure AD, thereby preventing the device from accessing your Azure AD resources that are guarded by device CA or using your WH4B credentials.
- Disabling the device will revoke both the Primary Refresh Token (PRT) and any Refresh Tokens (RT) on the device.

Question - once the device is re-enabled.
I've disabled a device - then needed to re-enable device once it was returned by termed user.
However, i am unable to sign in to the device now- There is no "other" user and what appears to be only the local account of the previous termed user available.
Does a disabled device eventually connect again with AAD?
