Docker: How to delete all local Docker images

For Unix

To delete all containers including its volumes use,

docker rm -vf $(docker ps -a -q)

To delete all the images,

docker rmi -f $(docker images -a -q)

Remember, you should remove all the containers before removing all the images from which those containers were created.

For Windows

In case you are working on Windows (Powershell),

$images = docker images -a -qforeach ($image in $images) { docker image rm $image -f }

Based on the comment from CodeSix, one liner for Windows Powershell,

docker images -a -q | % { docker image rm $_ -f }

For Windows using command line,

for /F %i in ('docker images -a -q') do docker rmi -f %i

Use this to delete everything:

docker system prune -a --volumes

Remove all unused containers, volumes, networks and images

WARNING! This will remove:    - all stopped containers    - all networks not used by at least one container    - all volumes not used by at least one container    - all images without at least one container associated to them    - all build cache

Here is short and quick solution I used

Docker provides a single command that will clean up any resources — images, containers, volumes, and networks — that are dangling (not associated with a container):

docker system prune

To additionally remove any stopped containers and all unused images (not just dangling images), add the -a flag to the command:

docker system prune -a
