"Docker" will damage your computer. Stuck in popup loop.


I started getting this popup, I already clicked move to bin and removed docker desktop from my computer.

No matter what I do now (click move to bin again, click cancel, reboot, ..) I keep getting this popup.


Any advice?

The way I got out of this loop is by preventing it from running in the background. Search for login items in settings, then disable docker and docker.app from running in the background. Then the docker will start successfully. Maybe try updating it before allowing it in the background again. Hope it helps!
