    Sorry you have to deal with this. You can stay on Microsoft Azure. Here is what to change before November 10, 2026:
    
    1. Find in-process apps. Look for function apps with FUNCTIONS_WORKER_RUNTIME set to dotnet. Microsoft gives a PowerShell script for this.
    2. Move the project to the isolated model. Follow Microsoft's migration guide, target .NET 10 and test locally with Core Tools 4.x.
    3. Switch the app in Azure. Set FUNCTIONS_WORKER_RUNTIME to dotnet-isolated and publish the new project together. Use a staging slot.
