Why won't Storage Studio point Docker's disk image at a folder that already has files?
Short answer: Docker can delete everything else in the folder that holds its disk image, so Storage Studio only uses an empty folder dedicated to Docker. Choose a new empty folder.
When Docker shrinks its disk image it can delete everything else in the folder that holds it. To make sure that can never cost you files, Storage Studio only lets Docker's image go into an empty folder of its own.
Pick or create a new, empty folder on your drive for Docker and try again.
