### Can I share local drives and filesystem with my Docker Machine VMs?
No, you cannot share local drives with Docker Machine nodes when using Docker

For more about sharing local drives with containers using Docker for Windows,
see [Shared Drives](index.md#shared-drives) in the Getting Started topic.
To learn more about using Docker for Windows and Docker Machine, see [What to
