Actual behavior

Docker Desktop fails to open and displays an error instead:

Expected behavior

Docker Desktop opens correctly and runs

Information

• Windows Version: Win 10 Build 19043.1348
• Docker Desktop Version: 4.2.0 (latest at the time. i don't have this problem in 4.1.1)
• WSL2 or Hyper-V backend? WSL2 on Ubuntu 20.04
• Are you running inside a virtualized Windows e.g. on a cloud server or a VM:

Steps to reproduce the behavior

For me, this breaks every time:

1. Have a UserProfile path with an open parentheses but not a closing one. Mine is C:\Users\KashCummings(Credera. These are AD bound names, so cannot change
2. Install Docker Desktop v4.2.0
3. Run docker desktop
4. The above error pops up

Based on a limited debug, it appears something about the log file rotation has broken between 4.1.1 and 4.2.0. The error message above the dialog box looks similar to the message provided by docker, which makes me think it's trying to do a regex match on a string that's an invalid regex string.

Error:
