NOTE: Am super new to both Windows and Docker
The tutorial I've been using says that they are under /var/lib/docker/containers if we're using Linux, but I can't seem to find that on my Windows machine.
Thanks!

In a default installation, layers are stored in C:\ProgramData\docker and split across the "image" and "windowsfilter" directories. You can change where the layers are stored using the docker-root configuration, as demonstrated in the Docker Engine on Windows documentation. Only NTFS is supported for layer storage.
The docker images, they are stored inside the docker directory: /var/lib/docker/ images are stored there.
Things might have changed with Windows 10 Anniversary Update. I installed Docker from source here (https://master.dockerproject.org/windows/amd64/docker-1.13.0-dev.zip) as described here:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/windowscontainers/quick_start/quick_start_windows_10
Docker puts all of the images in this folder:
C:\ProgramData\docker\windowsfilter and all containers in this folder:
C:\ProgramData\docker\containers An easy way to check is to execute this:
docker info It should tell you where your files are stored:
Containers: 2 Running: 1 Paused: 0 Stopped: 1 Images: 10 Server Version: 1.13.0-dev Storage Driver: windowsfilter Windows: ... Docker Root Dir: C:\ProgramData\docker Debug Mode (client): false Debug Mode (server): false ... Enter docker-machine with
docker-machine ssh there you should find your containers.
sudo ls /var/lib/docker/containers If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
