How can I upload large encrypted data from my hard drive to Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer into a Blob Container? Each time I try, I encounter the error "failed, error: UnexpectedCancel (used SAS, overwrite enabled completed)" or "failed: 0 items transferred UnexpectedQuit (used SAS, overwrite discovery not completed)" or "failed, error: UnexpectedCancel (used SAS, overwrite enabled, discovery not completed)".

    Hello David Taylor, please try to create a new SAS token with the necessary permissions to the targeted resources like containers and objects. Use this newly created SAS token and try to upload the file again.

    Considering that you mentioned that this is a large encrypted file/data that you're trying to upload, consider adjusting the timeouts for the blob clients. You can possibly set timeouts to infinite timespan to avoid issues during large file uploads.

    If the above two doesn't work, consider using AzCopy instead which is a really useful tool for uploading large files and provides more control and flexibility.
