Machine: Error checking TLS connection: Host is not running (Hyper-V)

[provegard]

When I try to use docker-machine env as non-admin in Windows, I get:

$ docker-machine env dockerdev
Error checking TLS connection: Host is not running

(Same for a non-administrative command prompt.)

Running the shell/cmd as Administrator works, but I'm migrating from using the boot2docker CLI, and our scripts used to be able to run boot2docker shellinit without requiring admin privileges.

I'm using Hyper-V, not VirtualBox.

Is this by design? Any way around it?

Never mind, I see that the Get-VM cmdlet requires admin privileges by default. However, I managed to add myself as a Hyper-V administrator by following this guide up until and including step 4:

Then logging out and in again and all is fine!
