Alternatively you can use Windows Task Scheduler to start powershell script which starts your batch file.

Powershell script contains only one line e.g.: Start-Process C:\foobar\azcopy.bat

As per my knowledge PS script containing azure powershell cmdlets cannot be scheduled by windows task scheduler. Probably it lacks something which cannot establish a connection to execute azure ps cmdlets through that script.

NOTE: Even if you schedule it it will execute the script, it will show status as completed; but it wont actually do its job.

I would recommend you to better go for azure runbooks for this task. Also you can use copyAzureStorageBlob cmdlet for the same. Thanks.

Schedule a PowerShell job to run azcopy.exe. See PowerShell scheduled jobs.
