Description
Storage Explorer Version: 1.4.2
Platform/OS Version: Windows
Architecture: ia32
Regression From: yes
Steps to Reproduce:
- store the account in the "local & attached"
- open new window -> where is the stored account??
Expected Experience:
I would like to see all my stored accounts in all explorer instances
Actual Experience:
Currently I'm afraid to close the running instance that I will loose all my stored accounts. To do an upgrade seems as a BIG FAILURE. I have lost all accounts stored in previous version. I did add them all and now I will loose them again?!?!?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the two reported steps in Azure Storage Explorer 1.4.2 on Windows: store an account under “local & attached,” then open a new window and check whether it appears. Done means stored accounts are visible in all explorer instances and remain available after closing or upgrading the application.
