I saw the issue regarding previous versions getting the: Docker failed to initialize Docker Desktop is shutting down. With 4.14.0 the settings file has: “vpnkitCIDR”: “192.168.65.0/24” and not 28.
I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled docker and I’m still getting the same issue when trying to run it.

Same issue here, the way I’ve solved it was downloading the new update from docker Docker Desktop - Docker
After the install, docker has been update and atm everything is fine (volumes, images)
Which update? To topic title is “4.14.0 Failed to Initialize”. I don’t see any newer version.
We can’t see the diagnostics, at least most of the active users here can’t, unless they are Docker staff members.
This is a common issue which happened in multiple versions. Maybe I am lucky, because the update process worked for me most of the times. I also had an issue with the initialization of Docker Desktop (on macOS), but stopping Docker Desktop and starting it again usually helped. One time I had to restart it twice. I did not report it, because I am usually busy when I experience an issue like this, but I recently commented in some issues on GitHub. For example here
https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues/6558#issuecomment-1304642394
Note that this issue is about Docker for Mac and related to a previous version, so I recommend you to search for or open a new issue in the Docker for Win repository here:
Since Docker Desktop works on multiple platforms, it could be difficult to make it compatible with everything, but it seems it affects many users, so let’s hope they will find the reason eventually and fix it.
Just updated to 4.14.1 and still not working.
