Azure DevOps (VSTS) - The current operating system is not capable of running this task, with "Azure File Copy"

This article explains how to replace the Azure File Copy task in Azure DevOps when using Linux build agents, which do not support the Windows-only task. It provides a step-by-step workaround using the Azure CLI build task with the 'az storage blob upload-batch' command to copy files to Azure Storage Account blobs. The solution includes two release tasks: one to copy files on the build agent and another to upload them to Azure, leveraging existing service principals. It's a practical guide for DevOps engineers facing OS compatibility issues.
