I already installed Docker for windows. when I type docker --version command in Command prompt, it doesn't recognize it at all.
The message will be this:
'docker' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Did I miss something ?
I had installed Docker 18.06.1-ce version on my Windows 10 machine and faced the similar issue, even though the docker was added the Windows %PATH%.
I moved the docker path to the bottom and that solved my problem.
I restarted the system, it worked, maybe we can say that a restart is required.
You need to start the docker first if you have not and then open powershell.
In the powershell, try to run docker commands.
I installed docker Docker version 19.03.13 build 4484c46d9d, in Windows 10 pro 1903.
I was facing the same issue, then I just renamed 'com.docker.cli' to 'docker' and set the environment variable to 'C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\bin'
Problem Resolved.

Renaming 'com.docker.cli' to 'docker' helped me finally get windows powershell and cmd terminals to recognize the docker command.
Add docker to PATH variable & refreshenv to keep using the same command prompt
If you've installed using docker toolbox the install path "C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox"
Manually using Environmental Variable > Path (add docker path here)
Using Command Line
For temporary use set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox
Make sure to take a back up of PATH by echo %PATH% before doing this
For permanent change setx PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox
docker: command not found
Windows 7: Just set the path of docker in system variable
Step:1
[Click on path -> edit-> paste the docker location]
Step:2 [Paste the docker location]
In my case C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox.
now check $ docker version
Make sure the docker.exe path (C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\bin) is added to the PATH variable.
You can check it as follows:
ECHO %PATH%
The docker path had to be appended at the end of the PATH in my case. After that docker cmd was recognized.
Run as administrator worked for me, both powershell and bash on windows. I did not need to restart.
I checked environment variables and noticed that docker path is as the following path in which "R" in resources uppercase. I fixed the case and everything worked as expected
Path: "C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\Resources\bin"
Just Restart the system, it is always good practice to restart the system when you install or uninstall any application. Hope this works :)
For those who are facing docker issue on VS Code
I was trying on VS Code Terminal after installation. Restarted and was still facing issue.
Then I tried with fresh terminal of Command Prompt -- it worked!
After that it also working fine on vs code.
In VS Code - close all terminals and open fresh terminal
and try test command:
docker --version
2022 - Windows 11
Add these paths to the PATH variable.
C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\bin
C:\ProgramData\DockerDesktop\version-bin
Docker PATH variable Windows 11:
You need to restart the system after installation. It worked for me.
Try to install GIT bash and then run this command on it for Windows:
base=https://github.com/docker/machine/releases/download/v0.16.0 &&
mkdir -p "$HOME/bin" &&
curl -L $base/docker-machine-Windows-x86_64.exe > "$HOME/bin/docker-machine.exe" &&
chmod +x "$HOME/bin/docker-machine.exe"
Click Here.
there is some issues with PowerShell or new version of docker due to which I was facing the same issue but then I went to this page and got way to run it.
PS: GIT bash is required.
If you have installed Docker Toolbox in your windows, go and add the environment variable.
PATH = "location of folder that contains docker-machine"
I also face a problem with the installation and running docker. I'm not sure you how did you install docker. I tried this way. I've downloaded the docker toolbox (https://github.com/docker/toolbox/releases) which comes up with docker,docker-machine. Oracle Virtual box which is pretty much enough to start docker locally.Please make sure you have git bash installed in your local. Once the toolbox installation is done click the icon generated on the desktop . Make sure this icon target to your Git bash.exe (you can verify this by right click on icon and find target). and verify docker version
For me, I had to ensure the check box Enable Hyper-V Windows Features is checked as I was installing.
I just wanted to have client installed, without the engine. So earlier, as I was installing, I unchecked that option. And after successful installation, I get the error - windows does not recognize docker.
But now that reinstalled with the checkbox checked, things are working fine now.
I noticed that running docker commands before startup causes this issue, but ensuring that docker is running and executing the commands after, they are then recognised.
I facing the same issue when I try to run docker -v in Vscode Terminal after install it. I try to use cmd and git bash it work fine. Restart your vscode will solve it
Unfortunately, After many tries and restarts, I uninstalled docker and Re-installed it again, and I had to build all things again.
I faced the same problem, them I tried in Powershell which works someHo
Download "docker-machine-Windows-x86_64.exe" from: https://github.com/docker/machine/releases
Rename "docker-machine-Windows-x86_64.exe" to "docker-machine.exe".
Copy "docker-machine.exe" to path C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\bin.
just add this path in your "Path" inside env variables inside windows
C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\bin
then restart your gitbash or cmd or ...
everything goes well after that !
*just add in your environmental Path this syntax if you did like (install docker in c drive) me, most probably it would work, for me, this passed well.
(note: if you going to call RefreshEnv.cmd or RefreshEnv
through your CMC with Chocolatey, this path would not be created for you, and you have to do it manualy in Windows 10 operating system).
C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\bin
In my case, I switched to the windows command prompt instead of the VScode terminal.

Got the same issue and fixed it by deleting %appdata%\Docker as mentioned by Github User "tocklime"
(Original Source : https://github.com/docker/for-win/issues/3088)
Short solution: delete %appdata%\Docker\settings.json and let Docker to create a new one.
Take a backup of the file for the next time it gets broken.
<tl;dr>
I face this issue almost every month and I hope this will get fixed definitely.
Following tmBlackCape answer, I checked the %appdata%\Docker directory and found settings.json damaged (editor tells it's a binary file and of course it shouldn't).
I deleted the file and Docker Service (still running) created a new one with default values. If the service isn't running, just launch it again.
You could need to change settings (via GUI, as recommended) to catch your needs.
I made a backup copy of my custom settings.json so next time I can replace the broken one without losing custom configuration.
Go to the directory C:\Users-------\AppData\Roaming\Docker and delete the file settings.json . Docker takes care of rewriting it at startup.
This manipulation solved the problem for me !
Docker failed to initialize
C:\Users[USER]\AppData\Local\Docker
C:\Users[USER]\AppData\Roaming\Docker
C:\Users[USER]\AppData\Roaming\Docker Desktop
Once deleted above directory, I didn’t have to do anything else, Docker Desktop started booting up as normal.
The error message I got was not exactly the same the OP got. For me, it said Docker failed to initialize. Docker Desktop is shutting down.
TL;DR
The powershell executable was missing from my local machies PATH. I had to add C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0 and docker started again.
The longer story
I tried everything that was mentined in this thread and nothing worked for me. When I looked at the task manager of my local machine to see if any docker-related process was started, I noticed that Docker Desktop.exe itself was started. However, the com.docker.backend.exe not. Docker tries to start that exe in an infinite loop, but as soon as it started it crashed again after half a second.
I then took a look into com.docker.backend.exe.log, which is located in %localappdata%\Docker\log\host and noticed the following line:
[2022-07-07T10:46:57.936079700Z][com.docker.backend.exe][F] exec: "powershell": executable file not found in %PATH%
I then went ahead and just added the path to powershell to PATH (which is C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0)`. As soon as I added that, everything started working again.
I have no idea how the path to the powershell executable got removed from PATH. I certainly did not do that myself.
This happened to me after Docker Desktop upgrade to version 3.6.0 (67351), too. (Which was surprising, because it worked before the upgrade.)
Due to the help in the top answer right now, I went to the above settings directory: %appdata%\Docker, looked at the logs and deleted/renamed the file settings.json -> Docker Desktop started immediatelly ; there had been a process retrying in the background.
In the time before that, the backend.exe.log had been all "unmarshal" something something:
settings.json: json: cannot unmarshal bool into Go struct field Content.proxyHttpMode of type string"
common/cmd/com.docker.backend/internal/settingsloader.GetSettings(0x0, 0x0, 0x0)
So, the above message 'tipped me off' as to where the actual error on start may be. Hmm...
For me the solutions here didn't help, but here's what helped.
Make sure the folder .docker/ in your home directory isn't marked as hidden in Windows. If it's hidden, Docker won't see it.
Make sure docker has Active Directory to .docker folder. For example, if the owner of .docker/ is SYSTEM and not your user, Docker won't be able to read it and crash.
For me deleting the folder %appdata%\Docker did not work.
Instead I had to run the following power shell command as admin.
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V -All

My windows features with running docker desktop are as follows.
It resolved me by deleting the file
C:\Users{username}\AppData\Roaming\Docker\settings.json
I had the same issue. I'm on Docker Desktop 4.8.0. The following solution worked for me:
Uninstall Docker Desktop
Delete .docker folder from C:\Users\{Username}
Delete Docker folder from C:\Users\{Username}\AppData\Local
Delete Docker folder from C:\Users\{Username}\AppData\Roaming
Delete Docker folder from C:\Program Files
Run CCleaner on Registry and Custom Clean
Restart Computer
Install Docker
Restart Computer
Start Docker
That's all.
Go to C:\Users\asd\AppData\Local and delete Downloaded Installation directory.
C:\Users\asd\AppData\Roaming and delete Docker and Docker Desktop directory.
Then start docker.
Didn't found the AppData folder in users[myUser] or anywhere. re-install solve it for me
latest update 4.10.1 has issues, i downgraded to 4.6.1 and it worked however i think powershell is closely linked to this issue
It happened due to local data corruption. You can check in VM log inside %appdata%\Docker.
I was able to reset and restart by renaming setting.json and then restart the Docker desktop by deleting all the previous log folder and temp folder clean. If this does not help.
Try to kill all the processes running in through the task manager
and then run Power shell in administrator mode and then shoot the command if you are using an older version of Lsmanager Restart-Service LxssManager.
On my side, uninstalling HyperV did the trick :
Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-Hypervisor
I also (as suggested in the voted answer):
Uninstalled docker desktop,
Deleted any docker related content in %APPDATA% as suggested
Delete any docker related keyys in registry (may be not necessary)
Then reinstalled it
And it solved the problem (but without hyperV removal it didn't work).
There are a few great solutions; however, it didn't work for me. Most of the "fixes" suggested here are already implemented and it just didn't work. I chose a different approach.
I looked at the docker releases and saw what was actually affected by their latest version not working (4.10). These things are normal, especially if the software engine has been updated.
Going through Docker releases, the latest release that didn't touch the Docker engine is 4.8.0. I downloaded and works great.
Removing settings.json file or %AppData%\Docker folder did not work for me. After uninstalling/installing the docker, the issue was solved. (Note: I couldn't try other possible solutions that are required the admin privilege)
The below Steps worked for me,
Step 01:
Navigate to the below-mentioned paths and delete the below-mentioned directories,
C:\Users[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Docker directory
C:\Users[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Docker directory
C:\Users[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Docker Desktop directory
Then restart the docker again
If you didn't find the AppData folder in users[USERNAME] or anywhere
Step 02: Type the below path in the "Run" to directly open the app data location for you
%appdata%\Docker
Then Delete the below-mentioned directories,
C:\Users[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Docker directory
C:\Users[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Docker directory
C:\Users[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Docker Desktop directory
Then restart the docker again
Note: If these steps do not help you. Try to kill all the processes running in through the task manager. And again delete the directories and start the docker
if you still can't find the issue you may use this trick and i'm 100% sure this will work
first check your operating system is up to date means no remaining updates if you pass this step then come to 2 step open window command prompt in run as administrator
then type wsl --install then type wsl --list --online then wsl --install -d Debian
then open docker if error come
then install wsl 2 linux https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-manual#step-4---download-the-linux-kernel-update-package
then restart docker or your machine and then if error also occur then type then wsl --update i hope this will work Regard : Hammad Khadim
I made the mistake of installing Docker via Snap... Once I realised that snap hadn't permissions to run in my working directory (on a different partition), I removed it. Now I can't use docker after I've installed it via apt-get.
Please help.
I've done sudo snap remove docker but when I sudo apt install docker and run via docker, I get bash: /snap/bin/docker: No such file or directory
The command you are looking for is:
sudo apt install docker.io
i.e it's docker.io not just docker
On Ubuntu, the package docker is described as a "System tray for KDE3/GNOME2 applications", which is probably not what you want!
I had the same problem. This works for me.
sudo snap remove docker
sudo reboot
the point is to restart the instance or terminal.
I hope this method can help
I did the same and just restarting the instance fixed it.
The problem is simply that your bash shell caches the locations of known executables, in order to avoid having to scan through your executables search path (that is, the directories listed in $PATH) every time you type a command. Because you have removed the executable from one directory (/snap/bin) and added it to another directory (/usr/bin), this cache is now out of date. This means that it will look in the wrong location if you try to invoke the executable simply by typing docker rather than its full path.
It is possible to fix it simply by starting a new bash shell, for example open a new terminal window and type the command in there.
Alternatively if you wish to refresh the cache in the terminal session that you are already using, type:
hash -r
It is not necessary to restart your computer (although this would also work).
I have been trying http://predictionio.apache.org/install/install-docker/ this tutorial. I have successfully built Docker image however when I try to run docker run i get the Can't open /etc/predictionio/pio-env.sh error.
docker build -t predictionio/pio pio
docker run -ti predictionio/pio
PS: If I comment out the last line CMD ["sh", "/usr/bin/pio_run"] I can build and run docker image successfully. I can open the file too from docker bash.
I think you need to grant permissions to execute this file. add the following line at the end of your Dockerfile
RUN chmod +x pio_run.sh
also, you might need to change CMD to ENTRYPOINT like following:
ENTRYPOINT ["sh","/usr/bin/pio_run.sh"]
Your output states you are running Windows. Did you use the default command prompt or did you use docker terminal? I had the same error messages in the past on Windows but mysteriously it disappeared after trying the tutorial again. I am not sure what I did different except I might possibly used docker instead of the default command prompt...
Could you also try using docker-compose instead of plain docker commands as described in the tutorial?
Ensure your storage (Postgres, MySQL or ElasticSearch) is running before starting PIO as well.
Just resolved it on my machine.
When you cloned repository on Windows, git converted end of line symbols from Unix-style (\n) to Windows style (\r\n).
You need to open file C:\wherever-you-cloned-pio-repository\predictionio\docker\pio\pio_run and change it back (for e.g. using Visual Studio Code, or Notepad++). Then you need to rebuild the image and it should work.
Also for the future you may want to disable automatic conversion Disable git EOL Conversions
I've installed Docker following exactly the documentation on the website but when I try to run docker run hello-world, I get the following output from the terminal:
Saved file tree to doc-filelist.js
Copied JS to doc-script.js
Compiled CSS to doc-style.css
Does anybody have an idea what is going wrong?
Is it possible that you have docker.js installed locally?
The output from your command looks like the docker.js docker executable is called instead of the Docker container one.
The log messages that you showed can be found in the docker.js documentation, it looks like you're running that instead of the one you want.
If this is the issue run npm uninstall -g docker
I was experiencing the same issue, and it turned out to be caused by running nvm (node version manager). When I used nvm to run Node, Docker was not recognized. However, when I removed nvm, Docker worked as expected. I'm sure there's a workaround to make nvm and Docker work together, and I'll look into that later so I can continue using both tools.
I just installed Docker Toolbox on my windows 7 machine.
After installing I run the Docker Quickstart terminal which displays the following message:
Looks something went wrong in step nLooking for vboxmanage.exen... Press any key to continue....
Anyone here who knows how to solve this?
Regards,
The same thing happened to me. At this moment I am using Windows Home.
At least in my case, what happened was that the environment variables DOCKER_MACHINE and DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALL_PATH were not created for the system.
I just had to add them and it worked.
Solved the problem by cleaning my .bashrc file.
More specific, i removed the cd , which makes perfectly sense.
For me, the problem was that the DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALLPATH was only set for the user used to escalate priviligies at installation. When I run Docker Quickstart as my regular user, the DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALLPATH variable is empty, producing the error.
Setting DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALLPATH system wide solved the problem.
I'm Windows 8.1 user, I got the same problem when I installing the Docker Toolbox.
Because I have a previous version of VirtualBox installed, so I uncheck the VirtualBox install option in the Docker Toolbox installer.
After the install and I run Docker Quickstart terminal and get the same problem looks like something went wrong in step 'looking for vboxmanage.exe'.
Look at the file D:\Docker Toolbox\start.sh, there are some code fragment：
STEP="Looking for vboxmanage.exe"
if [ ! -z "$VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH" ]; then
VBOXMANAGE="${VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH}VBoxManage.exe"
else
VBOXMANAGE="${VBOX_INSTALL_PATH}VBoxManage.exe"
fi
The start.sh use $VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH and ${VBOX_INSTALL_PATH} Environment Variables to locate the VBoxManage.exe.
And I find my system variables VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH is
D:\VirtualBox
and then, I change it to
D:\VirtualBox\
It works fine!
Or maybe you miss the VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH/VBOX_INSTALL_PATH Environment Variables.
This is my first answer on stackoverflow, I hope this will help you! Finally forgive my poor english ):
For me, it helped to start Docker Quickstart Terminal with admin privileges.
This works if you do not have admin rights:
> Setx DOCKER_MACHINE "C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\docker-machine.exe"
> Setx DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALL_PATH "C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\\"
> Setx VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\\"
The double backslash in the end makes sure that the variable is saved with one backslash as last character, needed in C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\start.sh:
> echo %DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALL_PATH%
C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\
Running docker as Administrator solved the problem for me.
I had the same issue.
Inside your toolbox installation folder you should be able to find the installers folder, there you'll find a setup.exe for a Oracle Virtual Box. Double click it, install it and you should be able to reopen the Docker Quickstart with no problems.
Hope this helps!
Cheers! :D
Simple solution: I thought I could just double click on it, but instead need to bring up a windows command prompt, CD to C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox , and type
sh start.sh
Due to the relative DOCKER_MACHINE path definition on L10, it seems that start.sh will only run when you are inside its directory. I fixed it by modifying the target of the "Docker Quickstart Terminal" shortcut as follows:
C:\Tools\Git\git-bash.exe -c "cd /c/tools/docker; ./start.sh"
Substitute the paths to GitBash and Docker Toolbox to match your installations. If your paths contain spaces, be sure to wrap them in quotes as usual. For example:
"C:\Tools\Git Bash\git-bash.exe" -c "cd '/c/tools/docker toolbox'; ./start.sh"
For context, I had GitBash and VirtualBox already installed before installing Docker Toolbox, so I deselected those options during its install. I'm sure that if I went with the default options, this issue wouldn't have happened. That's probably why some folks on GitHub suggest uninstalling VirtualBox and re-installing Docker Toolbox. Don't do that, it's almost certainly unnecessary.
Do you know how good an open-source program is?
You can actually investigate the issue yourselve, which could be way more precise.
please scroll the quickstart terminal up and see which error message you have got
open C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\start.sh (Where you install docker toolbox) with text editer, e.g. sublime text
and see the codes
if it is in step "looking for vboxmange.exe", it should be before STEP="Checking if machine $VM exists" and there are only 50 lines to read
As of 2018-11-27, the only two error that could be given in this step is from these lines, so investigate and find your error in it:
which are:
if [ ! -f "${DOCKER_MACHINE}" ]; then
echo "Docker Machine is not installed. Please re-run the Toolbox Installer and try again."
exit 1
fi
if [ ! -f "${VBOXMANAGE}" ]; then
echo "VirtualBox is not installed. Please re-run the Toolbox Installer and try again."
exit 1
fi
In which:
DOCKER_MACHINE="${DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALL_PATH}\docker-machine.exe"
And
if [ ! -z "$VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH" ]; then
VBOXMANAGE="${VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH}VBoxManage.exe"
else
VBOXMANAGE="${VBOX_INSTALL_PATH}VBoxManage.exe"
fi
So, check your environmental variables and echo it.
In my case, the reason is that DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALL_PATH is an admin user variable:
So, run the quickstart terminal as admin user or put the variable under System variable would do the work
I personally solved this issue by adding the following property to my env (Windows Env variables):
DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALL_PATH=C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\
as pointed out by the start.sh script of the Docker Toolbox installation.
You can solve this reinstalling the VirtualBox, choosing repair mode.
C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\installers\virtualbox -> virtualbox.exe
enter image description here
After finished the process, restart you machine and smile!
For Windows 7 users:
Change value "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\" to "C:\Progra~1\Oracle\VirtualBox\" for VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH system variable in environment variables.
If you are running docker from admin cmd then just try to scroll up and you will get the error message, and then you can solve the issue.
For me the the error "Docker Machine is not installed. Please re-run the Toolbox Installer and try again."
But unfortunately reinstall did not solve the issue.
I also had this problem on Win 10 Home and I tried probably every solution from this topic but nothing works, only thing that worked for me was hardcoding Path to VBOX in start.sh.
So in start.sh in this part:
STEP="Looking for vboxmanage.exe"
if [ ! -z "$VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH" ]; then
VBOXMANAGE="${VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH}VBoxManage.exe"
else
VBOXMANAGE="${VBOX_INSTALL_PATH}VBoxManage.exe"
fi
I did this:
STEP="Looking for vboxmanage.exe"
if [ ! -z "$VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH" ]; then
VBOXMANAGE="C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe"
else
VBOXMANAGE="${VBOX_INSTALL_PATH}VBoxManage.exe"
fi
And this works very well.
I know that this solution(hardcoding path) isn't best possible but it's only one which worked for me, and I think that sometimes it's better to use bad solution which works than good one which didn't work
This happens when the user connects to some sort of secured networks using VPN, TLS machine certs gets messed up, upon restarting machine and regenerating TLS machine certs, docker toolbox is configured to use the default machine with IP 192.168.XX.XX
In windows 8.1, I solved the problem by just adding extra \ to the DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALL_PATH environment variable.
Installer has created the user variable for admin as DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALL_PATH=C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox
, but it should be
DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALL_PATH=C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\
For people that installed docker with chocolatey you need to install VirtualBox separately from docker with choco install virtualbox and set environment variables as this
DOCKER_MACHINE == "C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\docker-machine.exe"
DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALL_PATH == "C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\"
VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH == "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\"
don't forget to add \ at the end of the folders
I faced same issue on my Windows 7 machine and below steps has resolved the same
Went to C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\installers\virtualbox and doubleclick virtualbox.msi to install Oracle Virtual box. (Note : It will install andd ask permission for 3-4 more components, Grant them all)
Set up the Env Variables
DOCKER_MACHINE C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\docker-machine.exe
DOCKER_TOOLBOX_INSTALL_PATH C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox
Restart the machine
Finally Open Docker Quickstart Terminal and give it some minutes (probably 5-10) to let it do the setup
I am having the same issue with the vboxmanage.exe upon running my docker toolbox.
I managed to solve the problem by installing virtualbox since I did not install virtualbox on my computer.
Might as well give it a try.
Docker Tool Box is not a standalone application. It has many other tools like Oracle Virtual Box, Git & docker engine itself.
./start.sh is seeking some existing configuration which might miss in the older version. I updated the GIT version from 2.0.x to 2.12.x & it works for me.
