Where is the file docker.sock?

Expected behavior

I want to access the file docker.sock

Actual behavior

I can’t find docker.sock

Information

I want to run nginx reverse proxy for Docker. It needs a volume to this file, so I want to point to the right dir.

Where can I find this file? How can I run this reverse proxy?

Docker for windows do not support Unix socket (only tcp and npipe).

Have you tried mount-binding the volume to /var/run/docker.sock? See my previous post here: [solved] Using docker inside another container
