Can't leave an org because my account is locked

A while ago, I worked with another company and I was invited to a Team on their tenant as a guest. Their tenant got added to the Organizations drop-down and I could switch over to view that Team.

That company then went out of business more than a year ago, but I still see it in my list of Organizations. I tried to tidy up my orgs list by leaving, but it prompts me to login to that tenant and then tells me that my account is locked. I can't get the account unlocked because the company is no longer operating. Is there a way to remove myself when I can't login? Or just hide the org from the list?

    Thank you Suganya! I was having the same issue as the others who replied here, but after following your instructions in the Settings, I was able to remove the Organization from my list and the alert triangle is Gone from my main TEAMS Header. I can still see the Organization if I go back to Settings-Accounts and orgs.. but that's OK.. It doesn't alert me to an issue anymore which is what I needed.

    Thanks again! :)

    This has been the same for years now. Hard to understand why MS ignores it
