Describe the bug
In section 6.1 Prerequisites, there is no mention that users should sign in to Docker Desktop on first launch. When users skip sign-in, Docker does not save file sharing path settings between restarts, meaning the shared folder configuration disappears every time Docker closes. This causes confusion during setup because paths that were previously configured no longer work. The following note should be added to section 6.1:

"Sign in to Docker Desktop when prompted on first launch. Signing in keeps your file sharing path settings saved across restarts. If you skip sign-in, Docker may lose your shared folder configuration each time it closes."
