Thanks, I wasn't aware of this.

Out of curiosity, why are you using docker containers on windows? For emulate static linking or to provide network/process isolation (and does docker under windows provide "proper" i.e. secure isolation?) or something else entirely?

Configure a couple of application servers from scratch and manually configuring the services starts to get tiring.

Usually the traditional option would be to snapshot the VM right after the first successful install.

However stuff like Windows Nano now makes it interesting to start playing with containers on Windows.
