Answer 1

This seems to be an incompatibility problem with windows "fast-boot" as described here: (just restart the docker service) and it may work.

https://github.com/docker/for-win/issues/2722

This is caused by an incompatibility with Docker and fastboot. You can either make sure you stop all containers before shutting Windows down or you can disable fastboot in Windows' power settings by doing the following:

CTRL+R > "powercfg.cpl" > "Choose what the power buttons do" > "Change settings that are currently unavailable" > Deselect "Turn on fast start-up"

You can also disable fastboot with a single command in powershell if you're comfortable doing so:

Set-ItemProperty 'HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Power\' -Name HiberbootEnabled -Value 0
