I missed that info, thank you for the explanation!
from azurestorageexplorer.
@gison93 why are you expecting that the folder will be deleted if empty? Can you share what storage service you are working with?
- Blob (non ADLS Gen2)
- Blob (ADLS Gen2)
- Files
from azurestorageexplorer.
@MRayermannMSFT it's ADLS Gen2. I expected that way because in the past I got this behavior. Actually I tested it on a non ADLS Gen2 and I got the behavior that I expected.
Is there a way to enable the functionality?

@gison93 so one of the things you get when you create an ADLS Gen2 storage account is hierarchical directory structure for the data in your blob containers.
The hierarchical namespace is a key feature that enables Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 to provide high-performance data access at object storage scale and price. You can use this feature to organize all the objects and files within your storage account into a hierarchy of directories and nested subdirectories. In other words, your Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 data is organized in much the same way that files are organized on your computer.
This means that unlike non-ADLS Gen2 storage accounts, the folders in your blob containers are real (not virutal). The reason empty folders disappear in a non-ADLS Gen2 blob container disappear is because they are virtual, so without any blobs whose names define the existance of a folder, that folder does not exist. But for ADLS Gen2 blob containers, once you create a folder, it will not go away until you delete it.
Does that make sense?
