How to save Notebooks saved within a deactivated Microsoft account.

I have a Microsoft account from a University I attended on a semester abroad. Whilst on my semester abroad, I used this Microsoft account for OneNote to take my notes in class. I have since returned to my home university and this account has been deactivated.

My notebooks remain saved under this deactivated account, but understandably it no longer syncs. I am unable to create new notebooks as it requires me to login on the current signed in account, the deactivated one. I have tried logging into my current active University Microsoft account by clicking the '+' next to 'connected services' when I click on my profile, however, adding the account never works.

If I sign out of the deactivated account and then login with my current account will I lose everything saved under the deactiveted account?

Should I just contact IT at my current uni?

Do I contact the university from my semester abroad to access the account?

I appreciate any help!
