If you're using VMWare, you need to enable CPU counters.

Docker Desktop runs a VM that requires KVM support.

If you are using Linux inside a VM, verify virtualization support.

I had the same problem on Debian 11 and Docker Desktop 4.8.1 What steps can I take to debug this? Is there anything obvious I'm missing? I've clicked restart with the Docker Desktop dropdown menu on the top right of my Ubuntu Desktop. I've restarted docker with sudo service docker stop / start When I click on settings, I get a perpetual loading spinner. However, this is what I get when I try to configure things in Docker Desktop.
