VirtualBox version installed is lower than the minimum version of 4.2.18

Adding the VBOX_INSTALL_PATH environment variable didn't help. I'm not planning to hunt for aand install that very old version of VirtualBox 4.2.18 as I'm hoping for an easy fix.  http://abouthpnetworking.com/2014/04/28/hp-comware-simulator-7-1-50-released-for-public/

HPE, This is sad to call this my solution but I don't have time so it appears I do have to uninstall the current VirtualBox v5.1.6 and Run the old version of VirtualBox-4.2.36. https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds_4_2 and as others have mentioned, make sure you install HCL_7.1.59-Setup.exe "Run as Administrator" 

Someone please post a better solution which allows me to run VirtualBox-5.1.6 or later.

It seems that the new version of Network Simulator is now running fine with Virtualbox 5. Get it here:
