Docker Installation process can't complete due to file being in use elsewhere












0















While trying to reinstall Docker for Windows, I am facing the following error -




The process cannot access the file 'C:Program
FilesDockerDockerresourcesdocker-for-win.iso' because it is being
used by another process.




Is there any resolution to this issue?

  • Use Ctrl+Alt+Del on Windows to see the processes that are using your iso file, and kill them, so the file will be released.

  • Problem is there is nothing that overtly makes it clear where else this iso file is being used. And I am not very much familiar with such a phenomenon?

  • iso is an image, so definitely your image is used - you can just reboot your machine, uninstall docker from control panel or get a new installation from here docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/install/…
