  3. it doesnt allow docker toolbox to download


    I installed docker toolbox to work on my project. It was working fine, until yesterday, when my system received an update.
    As usual it didn't ask, whether to proceed with the update or not. After the update was installed, docker stopped working.
    It says "Looks like something went wrong in step 'Checking status on default' ....Press any key to continue". And when I press enter, docker terminal closes.

    Initially, I thought something is wrong with the application itself. So, I tried to re-install it. But it shows the same message again. I tried to download the docker toolbox installation file from docker site itself. But for some reasons, it doesn't even downloads.

  4. WSL stopped working after uninstall Docker Desktop

    Unable to Uninstall WSL

    Hey,

    I decided that its was time to uninstall WSL due to it causing issues with another Application, so I uninstalled Ubuntu, uninstalled a WSL Update and WSLg Preview, but when I tried to uninstall WSL from Programs and Features, it rebooted, and then Windows 11 did not start (it just got to the Windows Boot Screen, then rebooted). After going into Automatic Repair, I enabled safe mode, and it just rolled-back the Uninstall of WSL.

    Any Ideas?

    Thanks,

    Charlie
