I'm using windows 10 and docker toolbox and as I try docker pose up --build option, I get the following errors:
pywintypes.error: (2, 'CreateFile', 'The system cannot find the file specified.')
docker.errors.DockerException: Error while fetching server API version: (2, 'CreateFile', 'The system cannot find the file specified.') [8628] Failed to execute script docker-pose

Reset to default 6Verify that Docker is started and try again
It seems the error you're facing is due to the path specified in the volumes on your docker-poser:
volumes:
- ./frontend/public:/frontend/public:cached,ro
- ./frontend/src:/frontend/src:cached,ro
You're basically telling the docker to mount a volume that doesn't exist as you're using Linux path structure on Windows 10.
Remember that on Windows / is equal to \. Otherwise, it would be best if you try to use absolute paths, to better find the issue.
You can find more information about windows paths on this link and in this other link you can find more information about volumes in docker-poser.
