Docker for Windows: re-exec error: exit status 1: output: archive/tar: invalid tar header

I was building a docker image with SQLExpress and some custom databases within.

There are some layer size limitations in Windows
If you get the message:
re-exec error: exit status 1: output: archive/tar: invalid tar header
then you may have exceeded the maximum allowable layer size

You can increase the storage options:

{

  "registry-mirrors": [],

  "insecure-registries": [],

  "debug": true,

  "experimental": true,

  "storage-opts": [

    "size=40G"

  ]

}
