I have Ubuntu 18.04 running in WSL2, from which I want to connect to Docker Desktop running on Windows.


From cmd.exe I see that Docker service is listening on 127.0.0.1:2375:

C:\Windows\System32>curl 127.0.0.1:2375/info

{"ID":"Z2IX:WLIX:FT2V:ZQYY:6222:M6Y6:EGZW:6D2G:EGVY:YABG:VYUM:MB2A","Containers":6,"ContainersRunning":2,"ContainersPaused":0

...


But in WSL2, I got this output by `docker info`:

`ERROR: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at tcp://127.0.0.1:2375. Is the docker daemon running?`


No connection to 127.0.0.1:2375 from WLS2:

$ curl 127.0.0.1:2375

curl: (7) Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 2375: Connection refused


The option "Expose daemon on tcp://localhost:2375 without TLS" is ticked.
