Minikube Error "loading cached images: Docker load'

I'm trying to start minikube in Windows 10 using below command. minikube version v1.10.1

minikube start --vm-driver=virtualbox --no-vtx-check

But i'm getting below error

 Creating virtualbox VM (CPUs=2, Memory=4096MB, Disk=20000MB) ...
    * Preparing Kubernetes v1.18.2 on Docker 19.03.8 ...
    * Unable to load cached images: loading cached images: Docker load /var/lib/minikube/images/pause_3.2: loadimage docker.: docker load -i /var/lib/minikube/images/pause_3.2: Process exited with status 1
    stdout:

    stderr:
    Error processing tar file(exit status 1): archive/tar: invalid tar header

    *
    * [OOM_KILL_SCP] Failed to update cluster updating node: downloading binaries: NewSession: new client: new client: ssh: handshake failed: read tcp 127.0.0.1:2506->127.0.0.1:2427: wsarecv: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
    * Suggestion: Disable dynamic memory in your VM manager, or pass in a larger --memory value
    * Related issue: https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/issues/1766

So i thought of degrading the minikube version. so i used v1.7.2 version and then v1.3.0 version but in both cases i got the same above mentioned error. Kindly suggest

Regards

It worked. Below are the steps which i have done as part of change for minikube in Windows 10 Home edition where hyper-v is not supported

Step 1: Enable virtualization and install virtualbox

step 2: add kutectl and minikube installer

step 3:

Run below command

minikube start --vm-driver=virtualbox --memory 4096

If it fails then

minikube delete and delete .minikube and .kubectl folders

Enable WSL 2

Open PowerShell as Administrator and run:

Enable WSL1

dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart

Enable WSL2

dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /all /norestart

Restart the system

Install Linux Distribution Package

Click here!

Disable hypervisorlaunchtype

Open CMD

Run bcdedit to check hypervisor status

bcdedit

If hypervisorlaunchtype is set to auto then disable it:

bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off

Reboot

Again run minikube

minikube start --vm-driver=virtualbox --memory 4096
