To remove all Docker images from your system, you can use the following command:
docker rmi $(docker images -q)
This command consists of two parts:
docker images -q: This lists all image IDs.
docker rmi $(...): This removes the images using the IDs returned by the first part.
Here is a step-by-step guide:
Open your terminal or command prompt.
Run the command to remove all images:
docker rmi $(docker images -q)
If you encounter errors about images being used by stopped containers, remove the containers first:
docker container rm $(docker container ls -aq)
Then, remove all images again:
docker rmi $(docker images -q)
To ensure there are no stopped containers or dangling images, you can also use these commands beforehand:
Remove all stopped containers:
docker container prune -f
Remove all dangling images:
docker image prune -f
This should help clean up your Docker environment completely. If you need any further assistance or run into issues, please let me know!
