Try restarting Docker. On my Windows 10 computer I launch Docker and once it is running I launch Portainer and get this error. If I then restart Docker, wait until it is running again and then try running Portainer it works fine. I have this problem on every boot and the Docker restart fixes the problem every time. This has been going on for as long as I can remember.
This Docker restart issue has been around for a while. See https://github.com/docker/for-win/issues/2303 (which appears closed but only because people gave up trying to figure out the root cause and just restart Docker to fix the problem).
