Docker daemon is not running

Newbie in this area. I have installed the new version of Docker in my windows PC. I am using windows 10 Pro. I have tried the very basic docker command but it is not working. I have also run the docker as administrator. Getting the below error always

docker: error during connect: Post http://%2F%2F.%2Fpipe%2Fdocker_engine/v1.39/containers/create: open //./pipe/docker_engine: Zugriff verweigert In the default daemon configuration on Windows, the docker client must be run elevated to connect. This error may also indicate that the docker daemon is not running.

What is Docker’s Daemon?

Docker uses a daemon-based architecture where the CLI connects to a long-lived process running separately on your machine or a remote host. CLI commands won’t work and your containers will usually go offline if the daemon stops. Here’s how to check whether Docker’s daemon is up so you can diagnose issues with containers and the docker command.

How do I troubleshoot Docker daemon running transiently?

Rebooting your host machine or restarting the Docker service with systemctl restart docker can help alleviate transient issues too. Another way to check for a running Docker daemon is by inspecting its process ID file.

Why is my Docker client not working?

the docker client must be run elevated to connect. This error may also indicate that the docker daemon is not running. This error meant the docker daemon is unreachable.

How to resolve Docker daemon is unreachable error?

Resolution 1: Restart Docker service This error meant docker daemon is unreachable. Docker daemon fails to start up on Windows or stops for some reason and especially when you try to run any commands. To fix such type of issues restarting the service will resolve the error.

Doing an combination of following two things might help :

- Exit docker from tray (lower right hand of the windows desktop)
- Relaunch it as administrator (Start Menu --> Type "Docker" --> Right Click the icon --> "Run as Administrator"

Please see if you still get the error.
