I have installed docker in windows 10 Home edition but docker command is not running successfully.

$docker version

output:-

daemon configuration on Windows, the docker client must be run elevated to 
connect. This error may also indicate that the docker daemon is not running.

I have tested running as administrator also but no luck.Any suggestion.

Hey,

Can you confirm that you have a vm running under docker-machine?

Hi hugopinto,

While installing DOckertools ,the installer installed Vmbox but while lunching Quickstartterminal during pre-create checks it failed showing this computer does not have VT-X/AMD enabled.After some serach in internet I found below steps to start it successfully.

Modify a command line in start.sh file located in C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox directory

This succeed the installation but the commands are not working now.
