Hi,
I have a user who left our company so I deleted their account to our Intranet site. They've recently returned to our company, so I tried to add them back as a new user, but I get an error that says "A User Already Exists For the Username Specified. Please Register Again Using A Different Username". However, this user isn't showing up on the Admin - User Accounts page, nor do I see them if I export a list of all my users. My host (PowerDNN) says DNN does not actually delete users in case they made posts or contributions to the website, it just marks the username as deleted which hides it.

Does anyone know how I can un-hide this user?

DNN version 5.4.2

Thanks,
Dave
