Question

I am running docker on windows 10.

I had a couple of images stored in my machine. The total size of these images accumulated to around ~10GB. I have deleted these images

First try to run:

docker system prune

It will remove:

docker system prune -a

It will remove:

• all stopped containers
• all volumes not used by at least one container
• all networks not used by at least one container
• all images without at least one container associated to
