Docker Desktop is Giving Me Errors on Windows 11, Help!

Asked By TechWizard42 On

I'm trying to get Docker Desktop running on my Windows 11 PC (version 26200, using WSL2), but I keep encountering this error: 'Docker Desktop: ver 4.40.0 deploying WSL2 distributions ensuring data disk is available: exit code: 4294967295: running WSL command... Error code: Wsl/Service/WSL_E_WSL_MOUNT_NOT_SUPPORTED.' I've attempted several troubleshooting steps, including restarting my PC, checking file permissions, and even downgrading Docker to an older version (from v4.40 to v4.21). My coworker has the same PC and is using Docker without any issues. Can anyone offer advice?

It seems like you're running into an issue related to using ARM64 with Docker, which needs a newer Windows version (27653 or higher). If you are using an ARM-based machine, you might either need to upgrade your Windows or ensure your Docker version matches your system. Have you checked if there's an update available for your OS? Also, check if your colleague's setup is configured differently, maybe they are using an Intel chip instead.

I recommend sticking to a stable Docker version like v4.24.2 and avoid updating it frequently. Sometimes the latest updates bring new bugs. If you're looking for stability, that might help. Also, ensure your WSL is properly configured and running; maybe try resetting or reinstalling WSL if you haven't yet.
