Description

I was running Docker-Desktop 4.51, so the PC seems to be set up correctly. However, the integrated update to current 4.57 stopped without error message, just showing an update is available.

So I started "Docker Desktop Installer.exe" via GUI or via commandline & '.\Docker Desktop Installer.exe' install --installation-dir="c:\program files\docker". Of course it's running with Admin privileges. It stops immediately in both cases, just showing "Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation", nothing else.

On another PC the update worked without any problem, so this is not a general problem. But how may I find what's wrong? Is there a log somewhere?

Reproduce

& '.\Docker Desktop Installer.exe' install --installation-dir="c:\program files\docker"
