It appears the Rancher Desktop is unable to spin up the cluster on Windows 11. Different versions are failing with different errors. one of the error line as per the logs is - wsl.exe --distribution rancher-desktop --exec /bin/sh -c if test -r /etc/rancher/k3s/k3s.yaml; then echo yes; else echo no; fi. Please find config file below.

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

(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

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