This has worked for me: Try to uninstall docker desktop, delete all docker-related wsl-distros (with the wsl --unregister command)
and most importantly: delete everything docker related in C:\Users\yourname\AppData\{Roaming,Local,LocalLow}
Then reinstall

And also, don'y try to update to 4.28.0, I tried that after and got the same error again.

@MixusMinimax Thanks, it worked, but the completion not working:

compinit:503: no such file or directory: /usr/share/zsh/vendor-completions/_docker

[ImBIOS]

Happened on 4.29.0

The only current working temporary solution: DON'T UPDATE! or CHANGE OS!

Same happening for me. I had to force close the installer. I still had the 4.23.0 installer on my pc, so I could install that and after that everything worked again. Would like to see a fix, because our security department will probably soon say I can't use this version anymore...
