For any reason, your personal or business Instagram page may be disabled for a while and you would like to restore it. Recovering an inactive Instagram account may seem confusing at first, but with the right training, it’s easy. In this post, we will teach you how to recover an inactive Instagram account that may have been deactivated for various reasons.
Instagram has a series of rules that you must follow in order to register and continue to be on this platform. But in some cases, your Instagram account may be deleted for various reasons, which is mostly done by the user himself, and in the case of some accounts, Instagram itself deletes it.
First of all, we will give an introduction regarding the deletion of the Instagram account. In general, there are two ways to delete an Instagram account.
In the first method of temporarily deleting your Instagram account, your page will be temporarily deleted or deactivated, which can be reversed and you can access your account again.
In the next method, which is to delete the Instagram account permanently, several reasons such as hacking the account or not following Instagram rules may lead to the permanent deletion of your account. In such a situation, the possibility of returning the account reaches a very small percentage, which is also related to the pages that Instagram has automatically and mistakenly deleted.
If your account has been temporarily deleted and so-called deactivated, you can log in to your account through the Instagram application or through the Instagram website and access your account. If Instagram does not allow you to login, click on Forgot your login details. In this way, a new password will be sent to the email address you entered during registration. In the next step, Instagram will ask you to reset your password and in this way you can restore your deleted account.

Why has my Instagram page been deactivated?
Sometimes you may unknowingly do an action that results in the Instagram page becoming inactive by itself. In these cases, Instagram will send you a warning or impose restrictions on you. If you don’t pay attention to these warnings, your Instagram page will be disabled and you will have to try to get it back. In the following, we will discuss a few things that may cause the Insta account to become inactive:
- Creating spam: Many Instagram users at the beginning of their page activity, to get more followers, do activities that Instagram considers as spam. Unfollowing the above on a daily basis (for example, 50 unfollows per day) and sending direct messages to a large number of anonymous accounts will cause Instagram to identify you as a spammer and disable your Instagram account.
- Using fake followers: Fake followers are another wrong way that many Instagram pages use. Using a fake follower will lower the credibility of your page and increase the possibility of it getting into trouble.
- Using a bot: Instagram bots are another option that makes it difficult to deactivate an Instagram page and return it. Never use Instagram bots.
- Copyright infringement: Instagram is very sensitive to the content published on sales pages. If you use ready-made images, you must make sure that these images are not subject to copyright, because Instagram will remove these contents. By repeating this, your page may become inactive and you may need to restore your Instagram page.
Publication of content including nudity, violence, sexism, etc.: This type of content can also cause trouble for your account and cause the page to be deactivated. Restoring an Instagram page that has been disabled for this reason is usually a very time-consuming process.
