Interactive run error - 'The parameter is incorrect' about for-win HOT 10 CLOSED

which shell are you using? It works for me:

PS C:\Users\docker> docker run -it ubuntu bash
root@905cd1e711a7:/# exit
PS C:\Users\docker>

from for-win.

Windows powershell. I might try a) rebooting, b) the command line prompt. I'll let you know how I get on.

I've already tried resetting docker to factory settings.

from for-win.

Can you make sure you are picking up docker.exe from C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\bin\docker.exe. The installer should add this to you path

from for-win.

I think it must be as that is the only docker.exe that shows up when I search the c drive.
And yes this location has been added to the path.

from for-win.

OK, i've just tried it from Command Prompt and it works fine. Still doesn't work from Windows PowerShell though. So it appears that I have a workaround. Strange that it doesn't work in Powershell. I could have sworn that's what I was using yesterday when it worked OK but I may be mistaken.

Thanks for the help @rneugeba

from for-win.

Could it be something in your powershell profile?

Could you try: powershell -noprofile and then on the new command line:

& 'C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\bin\docker.exe' run -it ubuntu bash

from for-win.

Closing this issue for now, as it seems specific to your setup. I can't reproduce it with a variety of Windows builds. Please feel free to re-open and/or provide additional information.

Thanks

Thanks @rneugeba

I tried your suggestion above and it all worked. I then tried it opening as usual and it also worked!?

Only thing I can think is that the machine has been rebooted (though I thought I'd already tried that?). All working now anyway. If it happens again I'll try

• rebooting
• command prompt workaround
• -noprofile workaround.

Thanks again.

On Windows 2016 , i am facing the same issue .
I tried all the workaround suggested in the post and still this error comes .

1. Rebooted the system
2. Used command prmopt
3. powershell -noprofile.
