Cannot update docker desktop

Hi, I cannot update the docker desktop on Windows 11. The v4.30 works well but cannot update to newer versions: It always shows “Starting the Docker engine…” infinite time. I tried everything that might help (clean install, etc) but only v4.30 can start. Please help, what can be a reason?

Did you also try removing the .docker folder from your user’s directory? You would loose client settings, but if there is nothing important there, you can safely remove it.

This could help

Yes, It does not help

What does the following command returns?

Are you using the WSL2 backend? If you do, what does the following command returns?

wsl -l -v

Do you see the docker-desktop and the docker-desktop-data distribution running when the desktop says “Starting the Docker engine”?

If you see both, what is your WSL version?

wsl --version

I’m sure you knew about the following page and probably tried the recommendations, but if nothing helps, you can also find the link to the GitHub repositoriy where you can send bug reports.
