Description

Storage Explorer Version: 1.4.2
Platform/OS Version: Win10
Architecture: ia32
Regression From:

In my opinion it would be useful to have an ability to cancel import(probably export as well) to the table storage. Consider a situation when the user imports a lot of data and suddenly realizes that there are some incorrect values. At this point he cannot just stop the export: he has to wait until the operation complete and only then delete all inserted data.
