When I try to install geth to my Windows 10 pc, I have faced two problem.

first, Although my computer has intel cpu, geth Windows executable is for amd architecture. I could not find any executable for intel. The name of the exectable is: geth-windows-amd64-1.6.7-ab5646c5.exe

Second, I have tried to install geth with the previous executable, but it shows below given warning. Afterward, altough it seems installation completed successfully. geth command could not be found when I type on cmd. You can find related screenshots below.

Try and go directly to your geth path and execute it from there. Looks like it's in C:\Program Files\Geth

Go to your terminal and type: docker version

You may get this output:

The program 'docker' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt install docker.io

In that case run that command and check if the error still appears.

If, after doing that, you get an error like this:

docker: Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Post http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.26/containers/create: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied.

It can be fixed by adding your user to the docker group. Run this command and then completely log out of your account and log back in:

sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER
