Examples
Remove all inactive builders (--all-inactive)
Remove builders that are not in running state.

Override the configured builder instance (--builder)
Same as
buildx --builder.
Do not prompt for confirmation (--force)
Do not prompt for confirmation before removing inactive builders.
$ docker buildx rm --all-inactive --force
Keep the buildkitd daemon running (--keep-daemon)
Keep the BuildKit daemon running after the buildx context is removed. This is
useful when you manage buildkitd daemons and buildx contexts independently.
Only supported by the
docker-container
and
kubernetes drivers.
Keep BuildKit state (--keep-state)
Keep BuildKit state, so it can be reused by a new builder with the same name.
Currently, only supported by the
docker-container driver.
