The Second step is give rights or you could see this errors :

    Access to the path: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft System Center 2012 R2\Virtual Machine Manager\bin\AddInPipeline\AddIns" is denied.

  • When you open the VMM console, you receive the following error message:

    The required folder "C:\Program Files\Microsoft System Center 2012 R2\Virtual Machine Manager\bin\AddInPipeline\HostSideAdapters" does not exist.
