All Images and Containers Disappeared After I Use Docker Logout

Logging out would not delete anything, but right now, I also don’t know why it would not show images right after a logout. Maybe you have multiple Docker installations and you somehow automatically switched back to another. It shouldn’t happen. Let me share a template that contains some questions for debugging.

We usually need the following information to understand the issue:

  1. What platform are you using? Windows, Linux or macOS? Which version of the operating systems? In case of Linux, which distribution?

  2. How did you install Docker? Sharing the platform almost answers it, but only almost. Direct links to the followed guide can be useful.

  3. On debian based Linux, the following commands can give us some idea and recognize incorrectly installed Docker:

    docker info
    docker version
    

    Review the output before sharing and remove confidential data if any appears (public IP for example)

    dpkg -l 'docker*' | grep '^ii'
    snap list docker
    

    When you share the outputs, always format your posts according to the following guide: How to format your forum posts
