Docker - image operating system “windows” cannot be used on this platform

Question

I tried this on my Windows 10 machine:

Dockerfile:

From microsoft/nanoserver
CMD [\"echo\", \"Hello World\"]
         


        

Answer 1

microsoft/nanoserver is a windows native container image. So you cannot run this as linux containers run natively. It can only be run on windows 10 or windows server.

If you are in windows 10, you can switch to windows containers by selecting

switch to windows containers
