Hey folks! I just started using Docker Desktop to host my budgeting app, Actual Budget, after migrating from PikaPods. I've managed to get the app running smoothly, but I've hit a snag: whenever my PC restarts, the Docker container doesn't automatically restart with it. I know there's a command to set the 'Always Restart' option, but I'm having trouble because it seems I'm trying to run it from the wrong directory. I can't find out where Docker has installed the app, and I'm not sure how to figure that out. Any tips on how to locate the right directory so I can run the command?

Instead of running the command directly, you might want to create a Docker Compose file. Just place it in a folder, and it should take care of running your app from there. It's often easier to manage than trying to remember directory paths.
But doesn't that mean the compose file has to be in the same place as the config file for my container? I'm not even sure where that is on my computer.
