Attention: We have transitioned to a new AAD or Microsoft Entra ID from the week of May 20, 2024. In case your tenant requires admin consent, please refer to this document located at Overview of user and admin consent - Microsoft Entra ID | Microsoft Learn and grant access to App ID: 6ba09155-cb24-475b-b24f-b4e28fc74365 with graph permissions for Directory.Read.All and User.Read for continued access. While the app may appear unverified, you can confirm its legitimacy by verifying the App ID provided.
You should also run a full scan. A full scan might find hidden malware.
