Read-only evidence

Get a safe Linux Docker Desktop recovery order before reset.

The $29 incident review separates Linux host disk, Docker Desktop logs, Desktop VM state, Docker storage, and file-sharing pressure before a reset removes local state.

Copy-ready Linux reply

Paste this before reinstall or Desktop reset.

Use this in a team thread when Docker Desktop for Linux is frozen and people are considering a reset before they know which state is safe to lose.

Docker Desktop for Linux is freezing with service fs failed / backend timeout symptoms. Please capture read-only evidence before reinstalling or resetting Desktop data.

df -h
du -sh "$HOME/.docker/desktop" "$HOME/.docker/desktop/log" "$HOME/.docker" 2>/dev/null
journalctl --user --unit=docker-desktop -n 120 --no-pager 2>/dev/null
docker system df -v 2>/dev/null || true

If the daemon is frozen, the failed docker system df result is useful evidence. If it answers, inspect named volumes before broad prune/reset because local databases and development state often live there.

Not ready to run a command?

Describe the Linux Docker Desktop failure and get the safest first step.

Send the distro, Docker Desktop version, and the latest service fs or journalctl symptom. We will reply with the lowest-risk check before reset or reinstall.

Shortest paid path

Need a team Docker Desktop policy from one incident?

Request the pilot payment link now, then attach one diagnostic log or paste the read-only command output after we reply.

What to capture first

Host disk pressure with df -h.
Docker Desktop log and state sizes under ~/.docker/desktop.
Recent user-service logs from journalctl --user --unit=docker-desktop.
Docker storage buckets with docker system df -v if the daemon still answers.

Review before deleting

A Desktop reset or reinstall can remove containers, images, Desktop VM state, and local volumes. If a team has local databases or dev fixtures, collect a representative diagnosis first and define which buckets are rebuildable.

Turn repeated crashes into a team policy

Use the $29 incident review for one frozen Linux Docker Desktop machine, or the $99 Team Storage Pilot when the same failure repeats across developers.
