Installing Docker on Windows can sometimes be a challenge.

The last couple of times I tried installing Docker on Windows, it was quite time-consuming because I kept running into virtualization and other errors. One of the problems was that I didn't read the prerequisites, just like any normal human wouldn't. Instead, I just downloaded the executable of Docker Desktop and hoped for the best. Well, it resulted in a lot of wasted time and frustration. Follow this "How to Install Docker on Windows 10" tutorial and avoid unexpected errors and wasted time!

The Microsoft document with the commands to paste into Powershell: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/wind...

P.S. If after all these steps you're still getting an error about virtualization, try one more thing.
Run Powershell as Administrator (steps are in the video, so you should already know how to do that).
Paste "bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype auto" (without quotes) and restart your computer. Hopefully, it fixes it.
