I am not sure exactly why this one worked, as I was trying to do a pull of a couple microsoft images. But in Settings > General > Expose daemon on tcp://localhost:2375 without TLS, worked for me. Following that I reverted the change but nice to have that on in the back-pocket. Might be related to firewall settings in Windows. I am using Win 10 Professional.
