Description

Storage Explorer Version: 1.1.4
Platform/OS Version: Windows 10
Architecture:
Regression From:

Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Add a blob account with a blob container to the quick access
  2. Delete (from the tool) the blob container
Expected Experience:

The container node in the left pane is removed

Actual Experience:

The entire left pane seems to be refreshed, which can take a long time. Additionally, context is "lost" in the quick access, so one needs to carefully navigate back to the storage account and re-open any node in the left pane that was open at the time of container deletion

Research direction

Start by reproducing the blob-container deletion flow in Storage Explorer 1.1.4 on Windows 10, focusing on the left pane and quick access behavior. Done means deleting one container removes only its node without refreshing the entire pane or losing the previously open context.
