Docker Compose failed to build - Filesharing has been cancelled

Question

I've ran into an issue with Docker Desktop, currently im running the edge version as a user on Stackoverflow. Before I got the drive not shared for unknown reason error which was "solved" by installing edge version: Docker for Windows: Drive sharing failed for an unknown reason

Now that this was installed im getting this new error which prevents some containers from being built. These containers have all been tested and works on several other systems. Currently 3 out of 4 containers are not built and they all produce the same error as below:

ERROR: for db  Cannot create container for service db: status code not OK but 500: {"Message":"Unhandled exception: Filesharing has been cancelled"}
Encountered errors while bringing up the project.

full error:

Has anyone encountered this issue before and found a fix?

You need to update File Sharing configuration in your Docker for Windows app (there is a new security hardening in 2.2.0.0 which has agressive defaults). Add all folders you need and then restart Docker for Windows.
