`kubectl` not found. If you need it, try: 'minikube kubectl -- get pods -A'

Had the same problem on Linux.

minikube kubectl -- get po -Akubectl version --client  zsh: command not found: kubectl

Minikube installs kubectl inside of itself. Therefore, you cannot just run the command kubectl.

To use the kubectl which you installed via minikube, you have to prepend the command arguments with minikube kubectl --. For example:

# the same as `kubectl version --client`minikube kubectl -- version --client

For convenience, you may want to add an alias in your shell configuration.

kubernetes windows-10 kubectl minikube

You have installed minikube, kubectl is not a part of minikube package.

It says when you do minikube start that kubectl is not present and if you need to you can use minikube kubectl instead.

This is also mentioned here

If you already have kubectl installed, you can now use it to access your shiny new cluster

kubernetes windows-10 kubectl minikube

kubectl is wrapped around minikube.

Don't forget to add a -- after minikube kubectl

minikube kubectl -- describe pod kube-scheduler-minikube --namespace kube-systemminikube kubectl -- get pods --namespace kube-system
