Cleaning half-downloaded docker image

Question

I have just installed Docker for Windows and I am running on Windows Container mode.

I downloaded this image microsoft/mssql-server-windows-express, which is pretty sizable, and the download gets interrupted halfway.

Where should I look for half-downloaded image and what is the best way to clean it.

docker image --all shows nothing

Use docker image prune to remove unused images.

This gave me `total reclaimed space: 0B` which is not what I expected because at least 2 GB have been downloaded – bluearth May 05 '17 at 12:46

You can use this command to dangling layers:

docker rmi $(docker images -q -f dangling=true)

`docker image prune` should do that under the covers. – BMitch May 05 '17 at 18:43
