I downloaded and installed Docker a couple of days ago. I don't remember the exact chain of events but I was instructed to follow the steps in the Windows Subsystem for Linux Installation Guide for Windows 10 (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10). After completing these steps I tried to switch to the Windows containers and Docker errored out. It does this each time I try switching. I tried the Reset to factory defaults but it never finished so I killed the process, uninstalled then reinstalled Docker, and am still having the same issue. At this point, I'm not sure what to try.

READ ME FIRST

This repository is for reporting bugs with the Docker Desktop for Windows software,
which we respond to on a best-effort basis.

Support requests in this repository (i.e., trouble installing or using the
software) will be ignored, but personalized support is available to Docker Pro and
Team customers at https://hub.docker.com/support/desktop/, and community support is
available from the Docker community Slack (https://www.docker.com/docker-community).

Issues without sufficient detail to debug them will be closed. They generally need
a clear title and description, steps to reproduce, and a diagnostics ID. See
https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/troubleshoot/#diagnose-and-feedback for
how to generate a diagnostics ID either from inside the app or from the command line.
