Installing Docker Desktop 4.5.0 failed: Componet.CommunityInstaller.EnableFeaturesAction failed: Not found

Question

On Windows 10, Version 2004 (OS build 19041.1415) I am trying to install docker desktop 4.5.0 after having installed WSL2 for Ubuntu. I tried repeatedly after a fresh reboot but this problem doesnt go away. Can anyone shed some light?

Answer 1

I had the same issue too, when installing the latest version 4.5.0 (It had been released on Feb 10th, 2022) Try to downgrade to version 4.4.4 it worked for me.

You can find the released note and older versions on this Docker for Windows

Note: You can install an older version and update to latest version 4.5.0

Answer 2

I had similar issue with 4.9.0 and tried installing 4.0.0 still my problem did not resolve. I removed trace from c drive (C:\ProgramData\DockerDesktop, C:\Program Files\Docker) and tried installing again but no luck. Later i found forum discussing about this. (https://github.com/docker/for-win/issues/1857) repeated the steps in windows power shell running as admin.

1. sc config winmgmt start=disabled
2. net stop winmgmt
3. Winmgmt /salvagerepository %windir%\System32\wbem
4. Winmgmt /resetrepository %windir%\System32\wbem
5. sc config winmgmt start=auto
6. Get-NetIPInterface

This steps helped me to install docker 4.9.0
