unable to login to docker via command line

Question

I was switching from Colima to docker desktop. I am done uninstalling Colima and have installed docker desktop However now when I am trying to pull any image(including public images)or trying to login I am getting this error

Error response from daemon: Get "https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/": unexpected EOF

Although I am able to login to my docker desktop.

I have already tried

1. changing context to docker context use default
2. setting up auths directly in docker/config file :

{
  "auths": {
    "https://index.docker.io/v1/": {
      "auth": "XXXXXXXXXXXXX",
      "email": "x.y@gmail.com"
    }
  }
}

3. Modified DNS server setting to 8.8.8.8
4. also verified that there are no special character in my docker password.
5. I don't have any proxy in my system
6. also tried removing credsStore from docker/config file.

System configuration: 
OS : Ventura 13.2.1

Server: Docker Desktop 4.17.0 (99724)
Engine:
  Version:          20.10.23
  API version:      1.41 (minimum version 1.12)

Answer 1

Try the following format for "auths", with auth as the base64 encoded 'username:password' string. Obtain it as echo -n 'username:password' | base64.

{
   "auths" : {
     "https://index.docker.io/v1/" : {
       "auth": "XXXX"
     }
   }
}
