Problem with docker. 100% cpu usage and nodes go down

If you would like to use WSL and Ubuntu, you would need to setup storagenodes as Linux services there: [Tech Preview] Linux Installer Part 2

However, if you would like to use docker, then you need to upgrade WSL version from 1 to 2, then you would not need a docker desktop: Install Docker on Windows (WSL) without Docker Desktop - DEV Community, Install Docker in WSL 2 without Docker Desktop — Nick Janetakis, etc.
You may also use podman or Rancher Desktop instead (you would use podman or nerdctl instead of docker to operate containers).

However, in all cases you would need to run WSL2 after reboot or re-login to start either storagenode services or docker, they would not start themselves by default.

If you want to use Windows GUI and run multiple nodes, you may use Win GUI Storj Node Toolbox.
