Out of the box, when you install Docker Enterprise Edition (EE) will run Windows containers. To switch between Windows and Linux containers you need to run the below PowerShell commands with elevated privileges:
To switch to Linux containers
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("LCOW_SUPPORTED", "1", "Machine")
and then Restart docker service
Restart-Service docker
To switch to Windows containers
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("LCOW_SUPPORTED", $null, "Machine")
and then Restart docker service
Restart-Service docker
