Docker exec in docker windows

I'm having trouble with running

 `docker `exec -t sandbox /bin/sh -c 'echo "127.0.0.1 sandbox" >> /etc/hosts'

in windows docker. I keep getting the following error:

"The system cannot find the path specified"

Does anyone know why I am getting the error?

instead of
docker exec -it [containerid] /bin/sh

try to use
docker exec -it [containerid] //bin//sh

I found out that using " instead of ' fixes this:

docker exec -t sandbox /bin/sh -c "echo '127.0.0.1 sandbox' >> /etc/hosts"

I'd run docker ps to get the ID of your running container then do docker exec that_id /bin/bash
