Hi @mohapsub I’m currently using remote docker environment(s) from my Windows 10 Home machine (where docker is not supported natively) In order to be able to use the Docker client with (for example) Minikube’s Docker daemon, you need to setup a couple of environment variables (just like @rohanKanojia mentioned).

Run the following command to check the values applicable for the Docker environment variables: minikube docker-env

Now open your user system environment variable configuration and add those values:

From now on, whenever you create a new process, you’ll be able to run any docker command successfully (docker ps, docker images, etc.)

FMP will detect these values too.
