Diving into image fails on Windows 10 with Rancher Desktop

[OldrichDlouhy]

What happened:

Inspecting locally build image "redis-test" via dive redis-test fails with following output:

Image Source: docker://redis-test
Extracting image from docker-engine... (this can take a while for large images)
cannot fetch image
error during connect: Get "http://%2F%2F.pipe%2Fdocker_engine/v1.48/images/redis-test/json": open //.pipe/docker_engine: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

Tested also identifying local container with the image Id (dive 86654ffa569f) with same result.

What you expected to happen:

Dive will open and inspect the image.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Assuming Rancher Desktop is installed with dockerd as container engine.

1. Create local docker image docker build -t image-name .
2. Install Dive winget install --id wagoodman.dive
3. Run dive to inspect local image dive image-name

Anything else we need to know?:

• Dive was installed via winget
• Running dive via docker docker run --rm -it -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock docker.io/wagoodman/dive:latest redis-test works correctly

Environment:

• Dive version: 0.13.1
• OS version: Windows 10 22H2 19045.3930
• Rancher Desktop 1.18.2, container engine dockerd (moby)
• Docker version: 27.5.1-rd, build 0c97515

Same issue here. I am getting:

open //.pipe/docker_engine: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

I am running docker engine on Windows 11:

$ docker --version
Docker version 27.4.1, build b9d17ea

Tried to dive into a vcpp2022 built tools image...
