Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Migrating files off of S3 to Azure in a visual and user friendly fashion is always a pain.

Describe the solution you'd like
It sounds crazy, I know. But I think Storage Explorer should support the S3 protocol!

Describe alternatives you've considered
Everything really. All of which require a lot of extra work and tend to be unreliable or don't offer the same visibility as a file browser.
