Switching docker to Windows container in Windows 10 pro

Open Priya-Jk-15 opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

I am trying to run docker in Windows 10 pro. I have installed docker from https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/install/ and checked its installation using docker version in power shell. But when I was trying to switch from linux container to windows container, I got Windows feature(s) not enabled. docker error (2)

So, I checked the pre-requirements; I got a Windows 10 64-bit: Pro; I have enabled hyper-v and other hardware prerequisites are 64 bit processor with Second Level Address Translation (SLAT); 4GB system RAM; BIOS-level hardware virtualization support must be enabled in the BIOS settings.

I have enabled BIOS-level hardware virtualization and I got this from SLAT wikipedia page: Hypervisors that support SLAT include; Hyper-V for Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 8 and later.

So, I didn't do anything regarding SLAT. Is there anything I should do for switching to windows container?
