@Sumarigo-MSFT Thank you so much. I have another question now.
I am trying to input this information "File share SAS URL:" to connect.
Where do I grab that information?

I have downloaded Azure Storage Explorer, but there is no Move button. What am I doing wrong? Many thanks. P.S. I have achieved my task by Copying and then Deleting, but that is appallingly manual and error prone, so my question stands. At least provide Cut and Paste, if not a Move button.
