Additional Context

No response

Start with the blob-container expansion path in Azure Storage Explorer and reproduce the reported “Unable to retrieve child resources” error. Compare the desktop request and authentication details with the browser behavior; done means expanding the container retrieves its child resources without the 401 InvalidAuthenticationInfo issuer-mismatch error.
