Settings version is too high for the application

[toreonify]

• I have tried with the latest version of my channel (Stable or Edge)
• I have uploaded Diagnostics
• Diagnostics ID: ACE68B7C-5E16-4F80-A0B9-5D152AE3B28A/20200509192237

What happened

Launching Docker with a few containers consumed almost all 8 GB of RAM, vpnkit-bridge consumed 3 GB of RAM. I've searched for the solution and found that I can try an latest Edge version of Docker Desktop.

Downloaded and it said that I cannot continue unless Docker deletes all configuration and data. Closed the message and downloaded version 2.2.0.5 that I had previously. After installing it, message saying "Settings version is too high for the application" appeared.

Information

• macOS Version: 10.14.6
• Docker Desktop 2.2.0.5

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Install Docker Desktop 2.2.0.5
2. Install over an Edge version 2.3.0.1
3. Do not reset Docker configuration in popup window, so it closes and doesn't launch and delete containers
4. Install 2.2.0.5 again
5. Can't launch Docker because of setting file incompatibility

So, I was able to manually edit ~/Library/Group Containers/group.com.docker/settings.json and change settingsVersion from 6 back to 5 and Docker was able to start and no data was lost.

But still, I've not started 2.3.0.1 reset to defaults process, so why would it change settings so early?
