I researched but was unable to find an answer to my specific question.
I have installed docker desktop on my old windows 10 machine. I also
successfully installed Portainer. I wish to install audiobookshelf on
it but I get errors when I try to deploy a stack using portainer. I am
totally confused on how to point docker to the drive my audiobooks are
on. Here is what I tried. Can anyone help?

version: "3.7"

services:

  audiobookshelf:

image: [ghcr.io/advplyr/audiobookshelf:latest](https://ghcr.io/advplyr
/audiobookshelf:latest)

ports:

\- 13378:80

docker run -d \\

  \-p 13378:80 \\

  \-v \\\\wsl.localhost\\docker-desktop\\tmp\\docker-desktop-root\\con
tainers\\services\\01-
docker\\rootfs\\portainer\\Files\\AppData\\Config\\audiobookshelf\\con
fig:/config \\

  \-v \\\\wsl.localhost\\docker-desktop\\tmp\\docker-desktop-root\\con
tainers\\services\\01-
docker\\rootfs\\portainer\\Files\\AppData\\Config\\audiobookshelf\\met
adata:/metadata \\

  **-v F/audiobooks: /audiobooks \\ This is the drive my audiobooks
are on.**

  \-v \\\\wsl.localhost\\docker-desktop\\tmp\\docker-desktop-root\\con

  \--name audiobookshelf \\

But youre keeping those useful errors a secret.

Docker Desktop on Windows is absolute garbage. This wont be the first
time you run into issues with it. If possible, run Docker on a actual
Linux instead, it makes things much simpler. But if you insist on
Windows as host, so be it.

Also whatever you pasted there is half a docker-compose file, and the
other half are docker run commands, you cant simply mix them, this
wont work at all.

Ask /r/Docker for support. And if youre afraid of using Docker
directly and learning it, then just ask /r/Portainer i guess.
