I’ve now reclaimed the 20GB that Docker for Windows failed to install. After the robocopy finishes, you can remove the directory with rd /S /Q (include subfolders, and don’t prompt for every freaking folder.).After reboot, do a “robocopy” of ProgramData\Docker to somewhere else.(Figuring out how to do that in W10 was yet another Google and 5 screens of restart options.) So more Googling, trying to take ownership of the file (fail) and I find this post that basically says: ![]() Great, if there’s a command I can run manually, why can’t the uninstaller run it? Find a post on the Docker forum that basically says “yeah, deleting ProgramData\Docker is really hard, we could do a better job of it, you should use docker rmi before uninstalling Docker.” Or something like that. Yet, WTF, there is still 20GB of docker crap left in the ProgramData folder.Īnd it can’t be deleted - the typical “Administrator access is required” but my user account is an administrator BS in Windows. I’m much more pleased with the experience - Docker is definitely a lot more usable with a Linux OS! Furthermore, it turns out Hyper-V totally Elephant’ed my video drivers (there’s a lot of posts on the web about that), so NetFlix and “streaming” became a contradiction in terms.ĭisabled Hyper-V (a much less painful process than enabling it) and uninstalled Docker. ![]() Because of the performance issues with starting up a Docker for Windows container, I decided to uninstall it and go back to the Docker Toolbox and try out.
