What version of the Azure Storage Emulator are you using? This looks similar to a previously reported problem caused by version 5.8 of the emulator. In that case, changing to version 5.7 or 5.9 resolved the issue.

My version is 5.8.
Now I install this version: https://download.visualstudio.microsoft.com/download/pr/e9476781-1f65-40e4-b7fd-e6b49840c7de/7028682de076b2dbc1aa5f1e02ec420a/microsoftazurestorageemulator.msi

The Storage Emulator is part of the Azure SDK, so an update to that should update the emulator as well. For a targeted update, the Storage Emulator documentation provides a direct download link, which is also available under Command Line Tools on the Azure Downloads page. These links are for version 5.9.
