Research direction
Reproduce the failure on Windows 11 with Storage Explorer 1.46.0 by following the listed sign-in and ADLS Gen2 browsing steps. Start by tracing the Electron Net Error and the ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED result from View all. Done means blob containers and their folders load, and users can browse and download the data.
