What _should_ I be doing? If it isn't as dumb as I feel,
this instruction should be in the UserManual as the first
paragraph in the UserManual.pdf. Did I miss it?
This is an issue between you and cmd, not with vbox.
I don't agree with that. If I need to do something special,
such as 'cd ...' to make VBoxManage work, that something
special ought to be mentioned in the VBoxManage reference.
As it is, a search of the UserManual for "program files"
returns only 2 hits, both related to Guest Additions:
4.2.1.1 Mounting the Additions ISO file
3. In the Virtual Disk Manager, press the “Add” button
and browse your host file system for the
VBoxGuestAdditions.iso file:
• On a Windows host, you can find this file in the VirtualBox
installation directory (usually under
C:\Program files\Sun\xVM VirtualBox).
and:
Name: /VirtualBox/GuestAdd/InstallDir,
value: C:/Program Files/Sun/xVM VirtualBox
Guest Additions, timestamp: 1229098279269739000, flags:
It's a considerable jump of inference from those to the
mostly unrelated question of "how to make VBoxManage
work". I did look over the table of contents of "Starting
Out ..." and found nothing relevant.
