Hi,

I know you want the original account of the user. Personally I’d ask the user to create a new account.

Then I would merge the anonymized account with the new one so all the stats and profile is replaced.

Merge is in the user admin settings next to the delete user, anonymize and impersonate buttons.

Would this work for you?
