Courgette.log file created on the desktop

AlbertoFabbri93 commented 2 years ago

[x] I have tried with the latest version of Docker Desktop
[ ] I have tried disabling enabled experimental features

Diagnostics ID:

Actual behavior

Docker Desktop creates a file called courgette.log on the desktop every time it upgrades.

Expected behavior

The log file should not be created on the desktop.

Information

Are you running inside a virtualized Windows e.g. on a cloud server or a VM:

Been trying to work out what the hell has been doing this for a long time. Concerned about low level trojans and all sorts of other nasties.

Thanks Docker for wasting my time. Clearly your "engineers" have never heard of %temp%

deltaepsilon commented 2 years ago

So glad this isn't just me.

Omniwot commented 2 years ago

Same issue here

bhagerty commented 2 years ago

Thanks for opening this issue! What a silly bug!

baterflyrity commented 2 years ago

Having this bug since the origin. Recent February update still bring new empty courgette.log file.

PascalMagnard commented 2 years ago

Same here, courgette.log on Windows 10 desktop after each Docker upgrade.

fhdalikhan commented 2 years ago

Just had this same file created on windows 11

aschkenasy commented 2 years ago

just happened to me although it created it only in the running containers root

SalehEssamSaleh commented 2 years ago

Same here!

Windows 10 Pro 21H2 19044.1645
Docker Desktop Version: 4.5.1
WSL2

so I should remove it or what should I do! and there is any way to make Docker liter! Because my laptop i3 second-generation 6GB RAM and 500 GB HHD which is already super old and I need to use Docker for studying purposes. So any ideas and thank you a lot.

guydumais commented 2 years ago

Same here: Docker Desktop 4.7.1 (77678) Windows 11

KoNyan2612 commented 2 years ago

Same here: Docker Desktop 4.8.2 (79419) Windows 11

Xtr102 commented 2 years ago

Same issue here. Though it only created it in the running container root.

SubaruSama commented 2 years ago

In some part of the code or during the update, it launches some chromium. Any Engineer from Docker can confirm this?

drewbritton commented 1 year ago

It's comforting to know that this is just a harmless side effect of applying Docker desktop updates. But I have to admit I still find the totally empty courgette.log file appearing on my desktop a bit ominous...

solarpolar commented 1 year ago

Still happening - and must send this issue on github a heap of traffic!

elvaret commented 1 year ago

me too

linghengqian commented 1 year ago

I have the impression that courgette is Google's differential algorithm in Chrome/Chromium, which is used for incremental updates to the Chrome browser. But I still don't understand why this problem persists, as it persists in Docker Desktop 4.13.0 (89412).

Jens-G commented 1 year ago

Still happening.

File is created by some courgette64.exe (located in Docker program folder) and that looks indeed pretty much like

julbra commented 1 year ago

It's 2023 and we still get this empty courgette.log haunting millions of desktops after every single update.

yooakim commented 1 year ago

Same issue as everyone else here. Still happening.

baterflyrity commented 1 year ago

Seems docker team officially dont give a crap about windows community.

Trystan-SA commented 1 year ago

Did I just yelled at my colleagues for this?

changetol8 commented 1 year ago

I had the same issue by last update

thaJeztah commented 1 year ago

👋 I work at Docker, but not on this part of the code, but I stumbled upon this ticket and checked with the team (asked them to have a look). It looks like they have a fix for this (it's currently being reviewed).

The courgette.log is indeed part of the "delta updater", and in some cases it may write this file. So the good news is that there should be no reason for concern about the file, but it definitively shouldn't end up on your Desktop 😅 (more so, because the filename is rather "weird" and because of that, difficult to associate with "Docker Desktop").

The fix that's being reviewed will disable these logs, and should end up in the next (4.19) release of Docker Desktop.

maxcleme commented 1 year ago

Closing this issue because a fix has been released in Docker Desktop 4.19.0. See the release notes for more details.
