Since Nutanix officially supports WSL 2, Docker Desktop should function as expected, as long as WSL 2 operates correctly within the VDI environment. + +If using Windows container mode, confirm that the Nutanix environment supports Hyper-V or alternative Windows container backends. + +### Supported configurations + +Docker Desktop follows the VDI support definitions outlined [previously](#virtual-desktop-support): + + - Persistent VDI environments (Supported): You receive the same virtual desktop instance across sessions, preserving installed software and configurations. + + - Non-persistent VDI environments (Not supported): Docker Desktop does not support environments where the OS resets between sessions, requiring re-installation or reconfiguration each time. + +### Support scope and responsibilities + +If WSL 2 encounters issues - for example, it crashes, fails to start, or experiences performance degradation - contact Nutanix support. + +If Docker Desktop itself encounters issues, contact Docker support.
