I tried below solution:

1- Open Powershell as administrator Launch command: & 'C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\DockerCli.exe' -SwitchDaemon

2- delete config file AppData/Roaming/Docker & start Docker Desktop

3-Net stop com.docker.service And then Net start com.docker.service

C:\Windows\system32>Net start com.docker.service
System error 5 has occurred.
Access is denied.

Solution

  • I solved this Problem by open docker file >> properities > security > advanced

    (Note: check the owner: your windows account give it full control sometimes windows reset these access privileges (happen with me cause of windows defender).

    then click add >> select principal >> advance

    and add security (also if not work add service) then apply the changes.
