I've never seen curl output like that before. I don't like it. Microsoft
has added curl and wget as aliases for Invoke-WebRequest in Powershell 5
(unclear about 4). They already used iwr as an alias, that should have
been enough. Somehow I missed the news on this. [1]
So what you're seeing isn't curl output. Powershell isn't really running
curl, it's running it's own web requester. You should be able to run the
real curl in Powershell if it's in the current directory by prefixing it
with .\ like this:
.\curl -V
If you want to run it in Powershell using the path use & to execute it
like this:
& "C:\HashiCorp\Vagrant\embedded\bin\curl.exe" -v --cacert
"C:\HashiCorp\Vagrant\embedded\cacert.pem"
"https://atlas.hashicorp.com/data-science-toolbox/dst"
Please compare the file versions as I mentioned in my last reply. If
they are not the same you will need to fix that (probably by
reinstalling Vagrant 1.8.1).

Those questions are outside the scope of this mailing list. Strictly
speaking this mailing list is for libcurl, the library the curl tool
uses. Though an occasional curl tool question will come in and someone
may answer it. For future curl questions please post to curl-users [2]
and for vagrant post to their mailing list [3].
Since I'm writing though I will tell you the problem with the command
you are using is that you are specifying the certificate file as the
machine you want to start which doesn't make any sense. Also, I use
vagrant from the Windows command prompt and it works fine. You may want
to try that instead of Powershell. To get it running should be as simple as:
mkdir dst
cd dst
vagrant init data-science-toolbox/dst
vagrant up
