Here my configuration for azure blob where i set the immutable duration for 7 days. How we can make sure that we can’t delete any backup files inside this blob?

I try connect to azure blob storage then upload new file and then i try to delete and i can deleted the file. Is the immutable not work since i can delete test file what i upload manually?

Setting repositories as immutable in Veeam does not change the blob storage itself. Files manually uploaded will not be immutable. 

The files that Veeam itself writes to the blob storage will be written as immutable.

Exactly what Tommy said is correct.  Manual file work is unrelated to Veeam settings.  This should be common knowledge when working with object storage like Azure blob.
