Cannot Pull Image from mcr.microsoft.com — Fails with EOF on Local Machine

Same problem/error, if i try to pull these images:

  • mcr.microsoft.com/playwright/mcp:latest
  • mcr.microsoft.com/azurelinux/base/nginx:latest:

I am on latest Docker Desktop 4.43.2

Though, this is not the first topic about Docker Desktop and failing pulls from MCR

Update: e.g. this one Docker on Windows fails to pull mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/base:0-alpine-3.20 due to connection reset

If you google for “docker desktop pull mcr” there will be plenty of results, showing various docker versions being affected.
