Docker container hanging on docker stop (Windows Container)

Question

I have a container that I want to stop, but when I do a docker stop [CONTAINER_ID] it hangs and never stops it.

I have tried the normal docker stop and docker ps -q | % { docker stop $_ }

you may give it a try for `docker system prune`, but carefull it removes all unused ones — cmlonder, Aug 07 '19 at 12:52
@AmitBaranes I did docker logs [Container] and I got "Error response from daemon: can not get logs from container which is dead or marked for removal" which I guess it somehow became dead? — Cameron, Aug 07 '19 at 12:53
take a look at this talk: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30794108/docker-cannot-remove-dead-container, Let me know if you still have this issue afterward — Amit Baranes, Aug 07 '19 at 13:00
@AmitBaranes I was reading that, but I am using Windows containers. — Cameron, Aug 07 '19 at 13:00

I have had this previously.

Stop the docker daemon, whether its in services (enterprise) or in the icon tray (normal) and restart the daemon, this should free up the resources so you can properly remove it using docker stop ID and docker rm ID
