Docker desktop is not opening

The Docker Desktop for Windows community forum is place where users can meet and discuss Docker Desktop for Windows and related technologies.

Finally, if your issue has not been addressed elsewhere, running:

  • :spouting_whale: :right_arrow: Settings :right_arrow: Diagnose & Feedback :right_arrow: Open Issues.

This forum is not an official product support or issue reporting channel.

Have you tried the mentioned troubleshooting documentation?
The error message is strange as it shows Docker Desktop tries to use a unix socket but with a Windows-compatible filepath, not Linux. By the way, which version of Docker Desktop on which version of Windows?
