Hello, I lauched Docker.app and gave me a Fatal Error of Failed to ping backend API. What does this mean? I can’t seem to successfully open Docker due to this.

Are you on the mac?
There is few threads about this error. Have you tried reinstall or update?
There is some issue posted month ago in:https://githubmemory.com/repo/docker/for-mac/issues/5839
There is also another chain about something with that error:

- macOS Version: 10.13.6 High Sierra
I installed the latest update from Docker Desktop as prompted when opening the app. Now it gives me this Fatal Error when launching:
one of the sub-processes failed: com.docker.driver.amd64-linux -addr fd:3 -debug (pid: 13208)
How do I fix this? Can I go back to the previous Docker Desktop version I was using?
### Diagnostic logs
```
Docker for Mac: version...
```
I tried to run Diagnostics but it just stalls.
### Steps to reproduce the behavior
<!--
A reproducible case, Dockerfiles FTW.
-->
1. Install latest version of Docker Desktop
2. Try to launch app
