I'm using rancher desktop on windows 11 and have installed every version since 1.0. Are you on WSL2?

Yes, I am on WSL2, should i uninstall docker desktop to setup rancher desktop?

(google translated) Yesterday I did a first installation of rancher desktop on Windows 11. It didn't work for me with the Docker Desktop for Windows active -- easy to see via the Troubleshooting tab -> Show Logs button. The installer will not rebost enough if ports are already in use. So, quit Docker Desktop for Windows and do a wsl --shutdown . Then run the installation again.
After the installation, you can also use the Docker Desktop for Windows again -- close Ranchner first
Even better: After the successful installation, I can run both desktops in parallel
C:\wslsources>kubectl --context docker-desktop get pods -A

It did not installed even after uninstalling docker desktop. It got installed after doing a factory reset
and rebooting a couple of times
