Expected behavior

Actual behavior

If I allocate more than 8 cpu cores it breaks. Only a factory reset can help.

Information

• macOS Version: 12.0.1
• Intel chip or Apple chip: Apple chip (M1 Max)
• Docker Desktop Version: 4.2.0 (70708)

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Allocate more than 8 cores in the Resources settings tab.
2. See the status bar go berserk alternating between “Docker Engine starting…” and “Docker Engine stopped”.
