So first of all I do not want to use VMWare with Vagrant. I want to use VirtualBox. I am running on OSX 10.9 by the way.
A few days ago I installed Vagrant. I followed the instructions to set up VMWare Fusion and added the provider.
--provider=vmware_fusion
I then realised you had to pay for another license to use VMWare Fusion with Vagrant. I opted out of that. So I downloaded VirtualBox and installed it. I removed VMWare Fusion completely. Removed Vagrant following the instructions on the page, and also ran Onyx to clean up anything. I ran a 'find' command and there was no Vagrant files on the system.
I reinstalled Vagrant. Reinstalled VirtualBox. When I ran:
vagrant box add laravel/homestead
I got the following error:
A valid license is required to run the Vagrant VMware
provider. Please visit http://www.vagrantup.com to purchase
a license. Once you purchase a license, you can install it
using `vagrant plugin license`.
Vagrant failed to initialize at a very early stage:
The plugins failed to load properly. The error message given is
shown below.
exit
Any Vagrant command I run outputs this error.
I've been struggling to get this working for days. I have no VMWare files on my system, and I removed all of the Vagrant files. So why is it still looking for VMWare?

In addition the basic usage help mentions:

and how it chooses a default provider.
