Docker Machine was an old tool and is not supported anymore. Now you need to use Docker Desktop. If your OS is too old, you can always create a virtual machine manually and install Docker CE in it. Docker 19.03 is old enough to have some problem with it like image compatibilitiy issue even if you can make Docker Machine work somehow.
