Windows – Docker Windows Server 2016 switch to linux container

dockerwindowswindows-server-2016

I Installed docker on Windows Server 2016.

ike described here:
https://store.docker.com/editions/enterprise/docker-ee-server-windows?tab=description

Install-Module -Name DockerMsftProvider -Force
Install-Package -Name docker -ProviderName DockerMsftProvider -Force
Restart-Computer -Force

Now the container runs per default as windows container but i want to have it running linux container.

On My desktop machine I've a tray icon where i can switch this. but on there server there isn't one

So what do i have to do tochange to linux container or how to get the tray icon?

In case anyone else comes across this question, Michael Friis indicates on the OP's post that the new edge channel includes experimental support:
