Unable to upload .exe files to Azure blob container in Azure Storage Account

Hi

I am trying to upload an exe file to my Azure Blob container but I am getting below ( forbidden ) error.

Also when I tried with .txt, .ppt .ps1 extensions I am able to upload those. Is there any restriction MS has for (.exe files). I am having storage
I am having owner permission for the Storage Account resource.

 

Kindly Help

Thanks and Regards,

Hirdesh

  • Hi, it looks like there may be a security policy or rule preventing .exe files from being uploaded. Check if your Storage Account has any firewall or custom policy that blocks executables. Also confirm your permissions on the container. Sometimes antivirus or corporate policies can block .exe uploads.
