<p>My Kubernetes cluster on docker for desktop on Mac is non responsive. </p>

<p>So I tried to reset Kubernetes as was suggested in
<a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52876194/delete-kubernetes-cluster-on-docker-for-desktop-osx">delete kubernetes cluster on docker-for-desktop OSX</a>
The results are:</p>

<p>All Kubernetes resources are deleted
 Kubernetes restart hangs
 GUI to disable Kubernetes is grayed out and non responsive</p>

<p>I would like to avoid reseting docker so I can keep my image repository</p>

<p>How do I manually remove Kubernetes from docker VM? </p>

<p>You can try disabling Docker Kubernetes in the settings file. You can find settings file in path <code>~/Library/Group\ Containers/group.com.docker/settings.json</code>. Edit kubernetesEnabled property to false.</p>

<pre><code>"kubernetesEnabled" : false,
</code></pre>

<p>I have ended up in situation where k8s is partly deleted and was not able to start docker. Restarting and/or changing this setting helped and did not delete images. I was not able to reproduce the situation later.</p>

<p>Also make sure you are running latest version of Docker.</p>
