<p>I'm trying to install <code>minikube</code> on Windows, but some errors appear in installation process as follows:</p>

<pre><code>E0328 17:03:10.003001    5340 start.go:209] Error caching images:  Caching images for kubeadm: caching images: caching image C:\Users\User\.minikube\cache\images\k8s.gcr.io\kube-proxy_v1.14.0: getting destination path: parsing docker archive dst ref: replace a Win drive letter to a volume name: exec: "wmic": executable file not found in %PATH%

<p>Could you please help me?</p>

<p>You did not provide how you are trying to install minikube and what else is installed on your PC. So it is hard to provide 100% accurate answer. I will try with providing a way that I use to install minikube on Windows, if that does not help please provide more information on what steps did you do that led to this error. I do not want to guess but it seems like you did not add the minikube 
binary to your PATH:</p>

<p><code>executable file not found in %PATH%
-   Preparing Kubernetes environment ...</code></p>

<p>First let's delete all the traces of your current installation. 
Run <code>minikube delete</code> go to C:\Users\current-user\ and delete <code>.kube</code> and <code>.minikube</code> folders.</p>

<p>Open Powershell and install chocolatey as explained <a href="https://medium.com/@JockDaRock/minikube-on-windows-10-with-hyper-v-6ef0f4dc158c" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>:</p>

<p><code>Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))</code></p>

<p>After installation run <code>choco install minikube kubernetes-cli</code>.</p>

<p>Now depending on what hypervisor you want to use you can follow steps from this <a href="https://medium.com/@JockDaRock/minikube-on-windows-10-with-hyper-v-6ef0f4dc158c" rel="nofollow noreferrer">tutorial</a> (Hyper-V). You can use VirtualBox as well but then you won't be able to use Docker for Windows (assuming you want to) - you can read more in one of my answers <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52600524/is-it-possible-to-run-minikube-with-virtualbox-on-windows-10-along-with-docker/52611412#52611412">here</a>. Another possibility is to use Kubernetes in Docker for Windows as explained <a href="https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/install/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a> - but you won't be using minikube in this scenario. </p>
