+        The <code>vagrant destroy</code> command does not remove a box
+        that may have been installed on your computer during <code>vagrant up</code>.
+        Thus, even if you run <code>vagrant destroy</code>, the box installed in the system
+        will still be present on the hard drive. To return your computer to the
+        state as it was before <code>vagrant up</code> command, you need to use
+        <code>vagrant box remove</code>. For more information, read about the
+        [vagrant box remove](/v2/cli/box.html) command.
