I recently also encountered this issue, but was able to resolve it by reinstalling the latest version of Docker (as for this writing, Docker Desktop 3.3.1 (63152)) for macOS.

I know that didn't work for some others, but my two cents is that it would be worth it to try to reinstall the latest version and then install a previous version if the error is still occurring.

Also, there are a couple of other things I tried that didn't work as well, including:

  • "Reset Docker to factory defaults" caused a prompt to come up for my password but ended up not resolving the issue.
  • Installing docker via brew install docker and overwriting the existing Docker install seemed to successfully install docker, but not docker desktop.

Same here on osx 10.13.6. I was running docker 2.3 and when updated to 2.5 it would show that very same error. Downgraded to 2.4 and it works now.
