 While trying to execute terraform plan locally after an az login we sometimes envounter below error.

│ Error: populating Resource Provider cache: listing Resource Providers: loading results: authorizing request: running Azure CLI: exit status 1: ERROR: Account has previously been signed out of this application.. Status: Response_Status.Status_AccountUnusable, Error code: 0, Tag: 540940121

How to resolve?

Delete all the files under the  folder. C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\IdentityCache

With that you can do an az login and then execute terraform plan without any issue.
