If I cd to C:\Users\szx\Projects docker run --rm -it -v "${PWD}:/src" ubuntu /bin/bash This command exits with the following error: C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\docker.exe: Error response from daemon: error while creating mount source path '/c/Users/szx/Projects': mkdir /c/Users/szx/Projects: file exists.

Disclaimer/Edit 2 Some years later, for everyone reading this question - If you are on Windows and want to use docker with linux containers, I highly recommend not using docker for windows at all and instead starting the entire docker environment inside a VM altogether. This Ext3 NTFS issue will break your neck on so many different levels that installing docker-machine might not even be worth the effort. Edit: I am using docker-machine which starts a boot2docker instance inside a Virtualbox VM with a shared folder on /c/Users from which you can mount volumes into your containers. The
