Docker Desktop Install Failed (Win 10)

Docker Desktop for Windows
1

I recently got a notification that there was an upgrade available (to 2.2.0.0) So I elected to upgrade my system. Unfortunately, the upgrade failed and it didn’t roll back to the previously installed version. I now find I cannot install Docker Desktop at all. The error I get is:

WhatI notice when trying to install is that the installer seems to freeze for a very long time (perhaps a half hour) during download. Then it proceeds and at some point fails with the above message.

Has anyone seen this or know what to do about it?

I had tried that script once before and didn’t succeed. However, this time I noticed that there is an additional directory that still needed to be cleaned up. That is C:\ProgramData\DockerDesktop. Once I also deleted that, rebooted, and ran the installer as administrator I got it to work. All is good now. Thanks.
