**Q: Detailed Description of the Problem**  
**A:**

- When I open DevKinsta, it immediately shows the “Starting Docker…” message. I’ve tried having Docker running and closed when starting DevKinsta. If Docker is closed it opens almost as soon as that message appears. If Docker is already open, nothing appears to be happening.
- “Starting Docker…” stays on screen for nearly 10 minutes before the error appears.
- I’ve tried restarting DevKinsta and reinstalling DevKinsta and still have the same issue.
- This **does not happen** on my desktop computer at work (Mac OS 12.6.6). Only my laptop (Mac OS 12.6.3).
- I do not have any firewalls active on my computer ([per forum report](https://community.kinsta.com/t/installation-on-mac-hanging-up-at-updating-docker-images/602/5)).
- I have tried deleting prior DevKinsta containers when the issue began and Docker shows that none have been created since I deleted them.

Hey @Infantree, welcome to Kinsta Community!

🤔 Can you please try to run the following command via terminal when both DevKinsta and Docker are entirely closed?

`sudo ln -s "$HOME/.docker/run/docker.sock" /var/run/docker.sock`

Once done, try to open DevKinsta as usual.

Regards,  
Alessandro

That did it! I ended up with another error that was resolved with other threads. Thank you so much!
