Installing Minikube on a Windows machine is as simple as it is on Linux or macOS.

Start by installing VirtualBox.

You can download the Windows installer for VirtualBox from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads.

If you are using the chocolatey package manager, perform the following steps:

1. Install minikube:

    C:\> choco install minikube

1. Install kubectl:

    C:\> choco install kubernetes-cli

If you are not using chocolatey, you can manually install minikube and kubectl.

1. Download minikube at https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/latest/minikube-windows-amd64.exe and rename it to minikube.exe. Then move it to a location on your path. Download kubectl: https://dl.k8s.io/v1.10.6/bin/windows/amd64/kubectl.exe and then move it to a location on your path.
