Containers and images not updating (refreshing) #9401

@Flightkick

Description

@Flightkick
  • I have tried with the latest version of my channel (Stable or Edge)
  • I have uploaded Diagnostics
  • Diagnostics ID:

Expected behavior

I expect the UI to be responsive and display the current state of my docker containers & images.

Actual behavior

The list of containers and the list of images are populated on startup but their contents are not updated during runtime. For example: whenever I run a new container through a docker run command with Powershell I have to restart the Docker Desktop application to see the actual state.

Information

  • Windows Version: Windows 10 Pro 19041
  • Docker Desktop Version: 2.5.0.17
  • Are you running inside a virtualized Windows e.g. on a cloud server or on a mac VM:

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  1. Make sure there's a local docker image
  2. Check the 'Containers / Apps' tab
  3. Run a new container for the image in step 1 through powershell
  4. Check the 'Containers / Apps' tab - You should notice the container is not listed
  5. Restart Docker Desktop and check the tab again - You should notice the container is now listed properly.
