To remove a non-functioning container in Docker, follow these steps:

  1. List all the running and stopped containers by typing the command:
docker ps -a
  1. Identify the container that is not functioning from the list.

  2. Stop the container by typing the command:

docker stop <container_name>

Replace <container_name> with the actual name of the container.

  1. Remove the container by typing the command:
docker rm <container_name>

Replace <container_name> with the actual name of the container.

Note: If the container is still running, you cannot remove it. You need to stop the container first before removing it.
