Docker: Error response from daemon: remove myvol: volume is in use

When I'm trying to remove a volume I get this error:

Error response from daemon: remove myvol: volume is in use - [2a177cb40a405db9f245fccd776dcdeacc d266ad624daf7cff510c9a1a1716fe]

But both docker ps and docker container ls return an empty list.

I've tried restarting the docker daemon.

I use Docker Toolbox on Windows 10.

try to delete all stopped containers:

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

then delete the volume

you can see stopped container using docker ps -a using docker ps will return only running containers

EDIT since you are on Windows

list stopped containers:

docker ps -a

delete the stopped container - you need to replace CONATINER_ID with your real ones -:

docker rm -f CONATINER_ID_1 CONATAINER_ID_2
