For me this is ‘C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox’. Browse to the directory of your VirtualBox installation, and copy the pathname. VBoxManage.exe is the one you are trying to launch, but Windows has not identified the directory of this program. The PATH is the list of directories of which Windows can run executables from. However, when the command is not added to the PATH, it just won’t work. If you type VBoxManage in the command prompt, you expect a list of commands to pop up.

‘VBoxManage’ is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Trying to VBoxManage in order to manage your virtual machines, but already stuck at the first step? Here’s how to fix it.
