Docker suspended in Win 11. How to be solved?

Docker Desktop
1

I have a behaviour that is not explainable to me. I upgraded my Win10 to Win11, after that my Docker Desktop (4.50) becomes suspended if i choose to log-off (win+L). In Win10 there was absolutely no problem in running Docker Desktop while logged out, e.g. for neural network training within containers. The interesting problem is, that the program which i develop seems to be available again after I sign-in.

Either the WSL2, the Container, or the network adapter becomes somehow suspended. However, even with Microsoft PowerToys “Awake” the behaviour did not change. Any ideas, what Win11 introduced, what Win10 never had? The energy settings are already turned to high performance. Resource Saver is turned off.

Any advise would be helpful, also the gpts do not know a right answer.

I would be glad if you can help me out.

That is not logging off, just locking the screen, unless your Windows is different. When you really log off, all apps stops that were started by your user, so that would not be surprising.

I don1t know if Docker Desktop has anything special to do during the installation based on Windows versions, but if it has, you may need to reinstall Docker Desktop.

I would try WSL without Docker Desktop and see fi that alone has the same problem or only when Docker Desktop is started.

You could try updating WSL. What does the following command return on your machine?

wsl --version

You could also install a newer version of Docker Desktop. If there was a bug in earllier versions, you may need to upgrade to a fixed one.
