In my case I solved by disabling the antivirus .

    Hi, I am having the same issue here. Disabling firewall did not work.

     

    Any other idea?

      I just had the same issue connecting to Azure API (Azure embedded service) and I just can't believe, but this is what worked for me:

      I noticed that in Action center (I'm using Win10) I had message, that I have not run Windows defender for some time - after I did a Quick scan - I tried to run my application again, and now this problem was gone.

       

      So I suppose anti-virus is doing some silent content blocking if some stuff it asks is not done.

      Security is very important, but having a bit more descriptive information would be all to spare some painful moments
