Unexpected WSL error

[rrdgcoks]

Description

I'm using Docker Desktop on Windows 11. I am using the default Ubuntu distribution. Just about every other time I start up my computer, Docker Desktop works fine. It loads up my containers. The other half of the time, it shows this error below. I've gathered the diagnostics ID. I've been having issues ever since I started using Docker Desktop. I've tried solutions offered in other issues, but nothing has really helped.

If I completely stop Docker Desktop services, then go to PowerShell, shutdown wsl, then run the command wsl, it gives me this error:
Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer.
Error code: Wsl/Service/CreateInstance/CreateVm/HCS/0x80070569

If I run this command: Get-Service vmcompute | Restart-Service, then wsl, it doesn't fail. After restarting Docker Desktop, it starts up. How can I fix this permanently so this service is always running?
