However, one can download the appropriate installer for Docker toolbox based on the OS requirements. Perform the following steps to install Docker:

1. Download the Windows version of the Docker Toolbox from the webpage https://www.docker.com/products/docker-toolbox. 
2. The Docker toolbox comes as an installer which can be double-clicked for a quick setup and launch of the docker environment. The following come with the Docker toolbox installation:
   • Docker Machine for running docker-machine commands
   • Docker Engine for running the docker commands
   • Docker Compose for running the docker-compose commands--this is what we are looking for
   • Kitematic, the Docker GUI
   • A shell preconfigured for a Docker command-line environment
