I am using Docker on Windows2019. Everything was running fine until suddenly container would die after running for a while(at most 30 minutes). The underline exception as below

Hi there,

i do have the same issue.

I already testet multiple configurations:

docker version 18.0.3-ee-3, 19.03.3, 19.03.5
Running in a VM on vCenter. One on a dedicated cloud server and another test on a local server.

At first, the vmcompute.exe crashed until i removed the System Override in the Exploit Protection for it. After that, the container ran for a longer time but the problem persists.
After some time, the lsass.exe crashes and takes the whole bunch of docker container with it.

I commented on a issue here, since the problem seemed related to me:

Still, I don’t have any clue how to fix this and hope someone can help here…

For anyone coming here, the recap of the issues is:
VMWare tools version 11.x are causing this issue. Versions before 11 are ok and the version 11.0.6 or higher also fixes the issue, so install that one and it should work again.
