I can't create a storage account using the Azure portal website (can using PowerShell). This happens no matter what PC or browser I use. The error I get is: The renderComponentIntoRoot component encountered an error while loading. This is clearly something on Azure's end. As this is a Visual Studio Enterprise (MCT) subscription, I do not have support included.

Any ideas or suggestion greatly received. Thanks

    Hi @Sean Carvin ,

    I understand that you are not able create Storage account only through portal, even after trying in multiple devices and different browsers.

    And, as you already mentioned that it is working through Azure Power Shell. So that the issue might be with Azure Portal.

    However, I would like to suggest you try the below recommendations if that works:

    • Please make sure your Visual Studio Enterprise (MCT) subscription is active. From the portal, navigate to Subscriptions and check that status is Active.
    • Please ensure that your account has the necessary permissions to create a storage account. You must have at least the Contributor or Owner role on the resource group you are working with:
      • From portal>> Navigate to Resource Groups>> Select your resource group > Access Control (IAM) > Click on Check Access and check on the View my access (you can find current role assignments).
    • Please check and make sure that the storage resource provider must be registered to create storage accounts.
      • From the portal>> Navigate to Subscriptions>> Select your subscription, then go to Resources Provider in the left pane.
      • Search for Microsoft. Storage and ensure its registered. If not, click "Register." Please find below screen shot as reference:
      • User's image
    • Also, if possible, please try to create a storage account in a different subscription or tenant (if you have access). This will help us determine if the issue is specific to your current subscription or with region. Please try creating in different region.
    • I would also recommend you try in Incognito Mode and make sure that all the browser extensions are disabled. Also, make sure that your browser is updated with the latest version.
    • Meanwhile you can also use Azure Storage Explorer as an alternative UI to manage and interact with your storage resources.

    As per the provided error message "The renderComponentIntoRoot component encountered an error while loading". Issue might be on Azure backend Systems.

    If the issue still persists, even after trying the above suggestions and as you mentioned that this problem seems to be on Azure Portal side, you can provide feedback even without a support plan:

    • Click on the link here on Azure Feedback Portal:
      • Search for similar issues. If there no similar issues, submit your feedback including as below:
      • The exact error message: "The renderComponentIntoRoot component encountered an error while loading."
      • Steps to reproduce the issue and A note about your Visual Studio Enterprise (MCT) subscription. And, mention all about the issue which your facing.

    However, please check Service Health in the portal to see if there are any ongoing issues with the portal from your region. Alternatively, you can also visit the Azure Status Page for any updates in regions wise.

    We recommend, you to please utilize as you are already using Azure CLI/Power Shell which is a reliable tool for time being.

    I hope the above helps in addressing your query.

    Please let us know in the comments below, if the issue is resolved or still persists. We will be glad to assist you closely.
