This could very easily be user error but I'm trying to use Docker-sync to fix the docker slow performance issues on Win10. I have added the above docker-sync.yml to my project's root, after which I have started our docker environment which in turn mounts the folder that project is in. Subsequently running docker-sync start gives theerror in the issue title. I have made sure the 'without TLS' is checked in the docker settings panel and exported the environment variable as discussed in the steps for installing docker-sync on WIndows. Not sure what it is I am missing.

docker-sync does not support hyper-V or such setups, only WSL based
