It looks like you are dealing with multiple issues.. First of all, Are you using the latest version (1.10) of Rancher Desktop? Do you mostly see issues after your machine wakes up from sleep? Are you running Rancher Desktop in a VPN environment? yeah, Having Docker Desktop on your machine should not cause problems as long as both Rancher Desktop and Docker Desktop are not running at the same time.

Yes, using latest version. No VPN and the issues happens as soon as I start the machine sometimes... Just now everything was working properly and I tried to quit Rancher and it got stuck trying to close everything (that blue bar at the bottom) 😓

You can open the folder containing Rancher Desktop logs from

Troubleshooting > Show Logs

Which logs would I need to add to the Issue? There are so many log files

yes please

Alright, so just zip and add them to the issue, right?

yeah, Also, Please check

Enable Debug

so Rancher Desktop writes additional messages to the logs that would be helpful for us when we investigate. (This is more for future runs)

Thank you! Just one last question before I open the issue:

Having Docker Desktop on your machine should not cause problems as long as both Rancher Desktop and Docker Desktop are not running at the same time

Having Docker Desktop installed IS NOT required to have Rancher running with docker container engine, right?

You are right. Docker Desktop is not required to have Rancher Desktop.
