- Fixed a bug that caused the `docker-credential-osxkeychain` and `docker-credential-desktop` to return malformed URIs when a token was stored for a server with a port specified.

#### For Windows

- The Windows MSI and `.exe` installers now disable Windows Containers by default when installing with the GUI.
- Improved port-mapping throughput on WSL2.
