guessing minikube was the cluster in your .kube/config

I did remove that but still the same, but also removed the whole config file and regenerated it, but still the same.

may be that its in as an alias. what does

where kubectl

show you?

Ah, thanks, will look there, this is my config file content

apiVersion: v1
kind: Config
clusters:
  - name: rancher-desktop
    cluster:
      server: <https://127.0.0.1:6443>
      certificate-authority-data: SOME DATA
      insecure-skip-tls-verify: false
users:
  - name: rancher-desktop
    user:
      client-certificate-data: SOMEDATA
      client-key-data: SOME DATA
contexts:
  - name: rancher-desktop
    context:
      cluster: rancher-desktop
      name: rancher-desktop
      user: rancher-desktop
preferences: {}
current-context: rancher-desktop

you can type

alias

as well and i think that should show if its an active alias

yep!!!!! You've hit the nail on the head!!!! Well done and massive thank you!! I didn't think to look there - it's an alias with minikube in it!!! Thank you soooo much!!

maybe a good health check for RD for all those Rancher folks watching.
