I'm using Docker Desktop on Windows 11, and I've run into a problem where my C drive is completely full. This is preventing Docker from restarting. I'm looking for troubleshooting techniques to fix this issue without losing any of my data. Has anyone dealt with a similar situation?

What you might also want to do is clear up some space manually. Check your Docker volumes and see if there's any unused data you can remove. Even small things can help, like cleaning cache or unnecessary files.
The first step is to identify what's consuming all your disk space. If it's mainly the WSL VMDK file that's bloating, you'll need to clean that up and potentially shrink it. It's not just a Docker issue; sometimes it's the overall disk usage in windows that needs checking.
Running out of disk space is pretty common with Docker setups. Have you checked how big your Docker images are? They can pile up, especially if you're working with AI/ML workflows. There's a great article out there that explains how to dive into your Docker images and reduce their size. That might help you figure out what's taking up space and how to optimize it.
