Error installing docker on Windows Server 2016

I get the following error when trying to install docker in an elevated PowerShell session:

Install-Package -Name docker -ProviderName DockerMsftProvider -Verbose -Force VERBOSE: Using the provider 'DockerMsftProvider' for searching packages.

PowerShell version is 5.1.14393.3053 Windows Server 2016 patches with all available patches up to today

Any idea how to fix this?

You might want to take a look at Stevedore project as a way to install modern Docker for Windows containers on both Windows Server/Client.
