Issue

The documentation provides detailed instructions for setting up sign-in enforcement using various methods (registry key, configuration profiles, plist, registry.json), but does not explain how to remove or disable enforcement if needed.

Administrators may need to remove enforcement for various reasons:

• Testing the configuration before full deployment
• Troubleshooting issues
• Changing enforcement methods
• Temporarily disabling enforcement during incident response

Why this matters

Without removal instructions, administrators who encounter issues or need to reverse the configuration must guess at the correct procedure. This could lead to:

• Incomplete removal (leaving files in place)
• Users remaining locked out unnecessarily
• Administrators hesitant to deploy enforcement without knowing they can reverse it

Suggested fix

Add a section explaining how to remove enforcement for each method. For example:

To remove sign-in enforcement:

• Windows registry key: Delete the allowedOrgs value or the entire HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Docker\Docker Desktop key
• Mac configuration profiles: Remove the profile through your MDM solution or System Settings
• Mac plist file: Delete /Library/Application Support/com.docker.docker/desktop.plist
• registry.json: Delete the registry.json file from the appropriate location for your platform

After removing the enforcement configuration, restart Docker Desktop for changes to take effect.
