I am trying to install Docker Desktop for Windows and once I have completed the entire process as mentioned in their official documentation, including installing and enabling the wsl 2 on Windows. However, when I try to launch the application, nothing happens except for a process showing up in the task manager. Even the taskbar icon is not coming up. I have already browsed for information regarding this issue and tried the following solutions, but to no avail:
System Specifications:
This is the log file generated: Docker generated Log file
Can someone please guide me regarding this?
Edit: When I installed docker on my friend's computer, and running the wsl -l -v
command, he gets 3 entries namely Ubuntu, Docker desktop and docker desktop data, but on my pc it is only showing Ubuntu.
common/cmd/com.docker.backend/main.go:94 +0x25 [2022-07-23T05:32:38.131207600Z][com.docker.backend.exe][F] exec: "powershell": executable file not found in %PATH%
This log message suggest the absence of a functional powershell on the Path. After fixing this Docker Desktop should start.
