Exiting due to GUEST_IMAGE_LOAD: Failed to load image: save to dir: caching images: caching image "C:\Users\MyUserAcc\.minikube\cache\images\amd64\my-local-image_latest": getting destination path: parsing docker archive dst ref: replace a Win drive letter to a volume name: exec: "wmic": executable file not found in %PATH%
Have tried to run minikube delete --purge, then reinstalling minikube, also reinstalling Docker desktop.
Running minikube using the Docker driver. Docker is using WSL.
Add WMIC if using Windwos 11 23H2 or later, it is disabled by default
Get-WindowsCapability -Online | ? Name -like "*wmic*" | Add-WindowsCapability -Online
This won't be possible in near future, so wmic executable usage by minikube will have to be replaced by Get-CimInstance powershell cmdlets invokation or other WMI proviers
Submitted a PR to fix this by using Powershell (which is included in Windows by default) as suggested by @gabrielgbs97 - which Microsoft also recommend moving to here.

It seems like there is an issue with your configmap.
Try recreating it. and make sure this path
/etc/kubernetes/pki/ca.crt
exists.AmarNathChary commentedon Mar 16, 2025

Same issue here, It Looks like it is due to the WMIC being deprecated and missing by default in Windows 11.
Mean while you can try .
