I am currently running Mac OS Monterey version 12.3 on an Apple MacBook Pro 13-inch M1 2020 laptop and just upgraded to Docker Desktop for Mac 4.6.1. Docker Desktop hangs on starting. I have tried to:
- Restart the Mac, to no avail
- Use the troubleshooting page in Docker Desktop, but none of the options ‘Clean/Purge Data’, ‘Reset Factory Defaults’, and ‘Uninstall’ work. Even tried to stop Docker Desktop (had to use
killall Dockerin Terminal to do this) and the same options do not work. - Uninstalled Docker Desktop for Mac, after terminating all Docker processes via Activity Monitor and the command line, by binning the app and using the CLI to remove a number of Docker folders including all images and containers using various directions from elsewhere on the Internet. Reinstalled using 4.6.1. Even repeated with a downgrade to what was a working 4.6.0, but no luck, even on 4.6.0.
The self-diagnose tool produces the following output:

Please investigate the following 1 issue:
1 : The test: can a VM be started?
Failed with: vm has not started: vm has not started
The Docker engine runs inside a Linux VM. Therefore we must be able to start Virtual Machines.
As a result, I am unable to use Docker. Has anyone got any idea how this issue may be resolved. Thank you in advance.
No crashes or stalls encountered.
