Hello @ITAdmin-3537

Folder is virtually created a "file-system" like layered storage, but actually everything in in 1 layer, the container in which it is.

There are multiple options you may consider to delete a folder from Blob storage container.

  • Deleting the blobs inside the folder will delete the folder also. You need to just delete all blobs inside the folder.

  • You can use a Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer desktop application to delete a folder from Blob storage container.
