Error response from daemon: Get https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/: net/http: request canceled while waiting for connection

While setting up my magento 2 docker containers on WSL2 i got this error message pulling images

Error response from daemon: Get https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/: net/http: request canceled while waiting for connection

• Open your windows hosts file

  • C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc

• Comment out the registry generated by docker

  #some-ip-address  registry-1.docker.io
  

• This fixed my issue

Hope this works for you

Happy Coding, Asrin
