Docker Desktop is stuck at starting

Hello!

I’m new to Docker, and I experience an issue, the Docker Desktop is stuck at “Docker is starting status” whenever I launch it. I see the notification about WLS2 Backend is starting, the Docker icon is on the tray, but that’s all. I can’t restart or stop it, only in the Task Manager.

I followed the official installation guide step-by-step, and I managed to start it without problem first time. After a few days, I had this issue. Finally, I uninstalled and reinstalled the Docker Desktop, and it started to work again.

But now, the problem is back again.

I didn’t find any effective solution to this problem, so please help me!

Thanks!
