Can't change disk image location

Docker Desktop
1

hi,
I’m trying to change the docker disk image location but it keeps throwing the following error: status code not OK but 500: Unhandled exception: Source and destination directory owners mismatch.
I tried to run docker in Admin and it works partially. location is updated, but I can only use max 2tb even if the disk is bigger. For my application I need more than 2tb.
Does anyone have a solution?

system info:
Edition Windows 10 Pro
Version 22H2
OS build 19045.5487
Docker Desktop 4.38.0 (Hyper-V)

I remember some size limit due to the filesystem in Docker Desktop. I’m not sure if it was 2TB. If you have lots of data, you probably shouldn’t keep it only in Docker Desktop. If WSL supports that size, you can save the data in your own WSL distribution, enable WSL integration for it in Docker Desktop, use the docker commands from that WSL distro and bind mount the data. I just assume it is the data that is large, not the images.
