Just encountered this. It's real and if this PR fixes it it should be merged. |

Addendum: could have left this alone and called it bitrot on a repo that hasn't had much activity in awhile. The world is full of problems like this though so since I encountered it, I'll be the squeaky wheel. @cwilhit -- you're the most recent commit on this repo. Should this be merged / is this repo deprecated and there's a better way to install the docker engine for windows via powershell? Thanks :) |

I've have the same problem in a windows server VM: `PS C:\Program Files> Install-Package -Name Docker -ProviderName DockerMsftProvider -Update -Force -Verbose

I just encountered this error on windows server 2019. Seeing that it was a race condition prompted me to try running the same command again; it worked. Until this is merged, anybody googling the error and arriving here could try this workaround: just retry. |
There is a timing issue between unzip and rename of docker folder to dummyName where it appears the Expand-Archive command hasn't fully released all locks even though the command has completed.
This fix retries until rename is successful.
Alternatively, the rename step could probably be removed completely.
