Where can I see log files for failed Docker Desktop Windows installation?

Viewed 602

I am trying to install Docker Desktop for Windows on Windows 10. The installer triggers the UAC prompt but then nothing else, silently dies.

Q: Where can I find the log files from Docker Desktop Installation (attempt)?

(Is there a command line argument I need to pass to Docker Desktop Installer.exe?)


Details:
Windows 10 Pro 64bit: 20H2, virtualization and hyper-v enabled
Docker Desktop: 3.3.3.64133
Context: I used to successfully run Docker Desktop, but an update failed and I could not install or uninstall it. I needed to see the installation log files.

Install logs are automatically generated by Docker Desktop Installer.exe, and can be found in:

%LocalAppData%\Docker\
