As I mentioned in title, I encountered the error message below while trying npm install --save azure-storage
npm install --save azure-storage

This is strange!
I didn't see this issue using Node.js 12.18.1 and npm 6.14.5.
But I used nvm (Windows, OSX, Linux) to switch to Node.js 10.15.2 and npm 6.4.1 and I can see the problem now.
It looks like a limitation of the older version of npm that has since been fixed.
To work around this you can use nvm to switch to Node.js v12 (and switch back to v10 whenever you need to).
Or you can rename the parent directory from azure-storage to something.
Thanks so much for reporting this issue.
Cheers
