This was a common error in our workgroup when we started to start Azure Storage Emulator either manually or via Visual Studio. Moreover, the issue was not consistent.
Azurite (installed with npm) currently can only be stop by send Ctrl+c.
The easiest way to upgrade Azure Storage Emulator is to download the latest setup file here. You can also upgrade the emulator manually by copying the right version files from here to the local machine folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Azure\Storage Emulator.
Bit-Torrent was hogging the emulator port (10,000). When we were not running the bit-torrent, it used to start-up fine. I haven't yet found a way to resolve the conflict by running either on a different port. I'll update the answer when I find that.
