We have and existing Azure Storage blob container that contains files and folders. We would like to access this container directly through a Windows 10 machine and file explore. What would be the best way to accomplish this. I have only seen way to map a Azure shared folder but not a container. Can a existing container be turned into a shared folder?

Thanks

    @Schumacher, Craig Azure Blobs cannot be mapped to your laptop. You can only do that with Azure File share. However, both are accessible through the portal or Azure Storage Explorer. You can also access the Blob files directly using a Blob the Sas URL as shown below-
