Docker Deskto for WIndows 2.2.0.3 (42716) fails to update/fails fresh install

The last three updates have failed? I am unsure why I still try? Hoping one day a working release will be pushed out. At least this time the uninstall still works. The previous two updates required a shell script to uninstall and cleaning the registry. Please release an update that installs/upgrades/works. Please stop pushing out releases that don’t work at all. The last working version I have is 2.1.0.4

Does anyone read these posts besides end users?
This is the second time posting here and I don’t see any response other than "yeah, it’s broken for me too… "

Oh, also the edge version fails in the exact same way version 2.2.1.0

+1: I have the exact same issue. Tried uninstalling and deleting everything to no avail.
Please post if you find a solution! :stuck_out_tongue:

Same issue here. Do you have a link to the last version that works?

Any update still failing :frowning:

Disabling the linux subsystem in windows resolved the issue for me.

2.2.0.4(43472) Install worked! I did take @nicholasrichter advise and turn off Linux subsystem. Unsure if this was a factor, but thank you Nicholas! Anyway, super happy to be on latest version and that the install worked

same issue here.
I disabled linux subsystem like @nicholasrichter and it works now.

I’m running a VM Windows 10 on Virtualbox on a Windows 10 Host with intel CPU.
