Are you trying this with an admin account?
- If your admin account is different to your user account, you must add the user to the docker-users group. Run Computer Management as an administrator and navigate to Local Users and Groups > Groups > docker-users. Right-click to add the user to the group. Log out and log back in for the changes to take effect.
I know you wrote Linux containers work, but maybe that doesn’t require an admin account because in case of the WSL backend. I am guessing, because I rarely work on Windows.
