I have checked the specs on my iMac, and the program installed. But, when I try to open and run the program, the error msg is: Couldn’t install docker.

I went through the knowledgebase, looking to see what it might be.

- running the following command in a terminal:  
`sysctl kern.hv_support`  
If your Mac supports the Hypervisor framework, the command prints `kern.hv_support: 1`

This is what I get from my terminal. However, my OS is version 10.11.6. It is older so I cannot upgrade the OS. Why would it show the command print `kern.hv_support: 1` if it is not supported?

Hi @rwood1 . Welcome to DevKinsta! I’m sorry for the trouble there. Could you try manually installing Docker and let me know if that helps? [Docker Desktop for Mac and Windows | Docker](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop)
