Answer 1

You can use the command docker rmi IMAGE_NAME:TAG_NAME and it will work.

Answer 2

I just checked in the Docker docs and i think this is something also can be done

rmi

You can remove an image using its short or long ID, its tag, or its digest. If an image has one or more tag or digest reference, you must remove all of them before the image is removed.

so rather than using ID u can do something like this ---

$ docker rmi test1 Untagged: test1:latest $ docker rmi test2 Untagged: test2:latest

Answer 3

Here is a way you could do this. Run the command:

docker images | grep 810001cb03af | awk '{print $1 ":" $2}' | xargs docker rmi

where 810001cb03af is your image id.

Answer 4

There are multiple ways you can delete.

a) delete only one:

$ sudo docker rmi login(REPOSITORY NAME):latest(TAG NAME)

b) delete all with matching id with -f command:

$ sudo docker rmi -f 91dfd8adbf04(IMAGE ID)

Answer 5

You should try removing images using digest,

    $ docker images --digests

    REPOSITORY                     TAG       DIGEST                                                                    IMAGE ID        CREATED         SIZE
    localhost:5000/test/busybox    <none>    sha256:cbbf2f9a99b47fc460d422812b6a5adff7dfee951d8fa2e4a98caa0382cfbdbf   4986bf8c1536

    $ docker rmi localhost:5000/test/busybox@sha256:cbbf2f9a99b47fc460d422812b6a5adff7dfee951d8fa2e4a98caa0382cfbdbf
     Untagged: localhost:5000/test/busybox@sha256:cbbf2f9a99b47fc460d422812b6a5adff7dfee951d8fa2e4a98caa0382cfbdbf
