Bug fixes and minor changes

Improved networking configuration and error detection: fixed DHCP renewal and rebind issues Allow DNS/DHCP processes to restart on bind error Less destructive migration from Docker Toolbox Improved documentation Better error handling: Moby restarts itself if start takes too long. Kill proxy and exit docker before a new version is installed The application cannot start twice now The proxy stops automatically when the GUI is not running Removed existing proxy firewall rules before starting Moby The application now collects more and better information on crashes and other issues Improved all dialogs and windows Added the version to installer's first screen Better reset to defaults New regression test framework The installation MSI is now timestamped The Hyper-V install mentions Docker Toolbox only if it is present Improved Bugsnag reports: fixed a dependency bug, and added a unique ID to each new report Improved the build Improved code quality

Settings are now serialized in JSON. This install loses the current settings.

Docker needs to open ports on the firewall. Sometimes, the user sees a firewall alert dialog. The user should allow the ports to be opened.

The application was upgraded to 64 bits. The installation path changed to C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker. Users might need to close any Powershell/Cmd windows that were already open before the update to get the new PATH. In some cases, users may need to log off and on again.

Fixed DHCP renewal and rebind Only mention toolbox on Hyper-V install if it's present The application does not start twice now DNS/DHCP processes are allowed to restart on bind error now Removed the window that opens quickly during bugsnag reports Fixed OS reported by Bugsnag Improved the build Improved code quality
