Docker Desktop for Windows: dashboard does not display containers nor images

Hi, forum

For whatever reason, “Dashboard” GUI app does not display containers (it says “No containers running, Try running… etc”) nor images (it says “images on disk: 0 images, total size 0 bytes, etc.”)

Both is false, of course, I have tons of images and more than one running containers.

Seems like it fails to reach out to Docker API, but how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue?

Version information:

Windows 10 x64, ver 2004
