I'm looking for a way to install Docker across all the computers in my lab. I've been using Endpoint Configuration Manager and the Software Center to get it set up, but after installing, I have to log into each machine with my admin account to run Docker initially since it requires administrative privileges for that first-time setup. Is there a method to install Docker so that lab users, who don't have admin rights, can use it right away without this hassle? I remember that the older version of Docker didn't have this issue, but it seems to have changed after version 4.18.

Have you checked the official Docker documentation on using Intune for deployment? It might provide a suitable way to arrange the installation for your lab without requiring admin access from the users.
You might want to try scripting the installation using Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). It could allow you to set up Docker without needing admin rights on the first run, making it easier for everyone in your lab to start using it right away.
That's a neat idea! Do you have any specific scripts or examples of how to set that up?
I tried that a few months back, but I filled out their inquiry for education pricing and never got a response. Did you have any better luck contacting them?
