Question

I am on Windows 10 Simple image building does not work

docker run -it --rm mcr.microsoft.com/windows/nanoserver:1809
Unable to find image 'mcr.microsoft.com/windows/nanoserver:1809' locally
1809: Pulling from windows/nanoserver

Answer 1

Looks like you're in Windows Container, you need to switch to Linux Container.
Then, wait for docker restart and retry.
