Implementation of installing Docker in win10 environment

1. Enter the Docker official website

First, go to the Docker official website to download the latest official Docker for Windows: Docker Download

You can view Docker's development documentation on the official website.

According to the official website, downloading Docker in Windows environment must meet the following requirements: Docker for Windows requires 64bit Windows 10 Pro and Microsoft Hyper-V (that is, 64-bit Windows 10 Pro (both Professional and Enterprise editions) and Microsoft Hyper-V). Hyper-V is Microsoft's virtual machine, which comes with Windows 10. We just need to start it.

2. Start Microsoft Hyper-V

On your computer, open "Control Panel" -> "Programs" -> "Turn Windows features on or off".

Click on the red box content:

As follows, check the Hyper-V option:

After clicking OK, the system will update automatically. After the update is complete, you will be prompted whether to restart the computer. Choose to restart the computer immediately . After restarting the computer, left-click the win icon, view all applications on the computer, and find "windows management tools":

If you click on it and see a Hyper-V manager, it means that Hyper-V has been successfully opened. Click it to view the manager content:

3. Install Docker

After checking the box to accept, click Install and the installation will start automatically:

After successful installation, it will display:

You can see that there is an additional Docker for Windows icon on the desktop.

After the installation is complete, Docker will start automatically, but my computer has been unresponsive for a long time. I saw in the task manager that Docker is open, but it just won’t run, so I restarted the computer, and after the restart, the following prompt popped up:

While waiting to start Docker, an error pops up: Not enough memory to start Docker, and Docker cannot be started:

It means "You are trying to start Docker but you don't have enough memory, free up some memory or change your settings".
Find the Docker icon in the taskbar:

Right-click the icon and find "settings...". Click it and modify the Docker memory from 2048MB to 1280MB as shown in the figure, then click Apply and Docker will restart automatically.

Now you can see that Docker is running

4. Start your Docker journey

Docker operations are performed using the command line, so we need to open the command line tool first (or download other tools such as PowerShell, etc.). Keyboard input: win+R, open the run tool, enter cmd, open the command line tool:

You can try to check our Docker version first:
