how to install .apk in a portable android emulator?

Question

I followed the instruction on this tutorial How do you install an APK file in the Android emulator? but it doesnt install the apk. instead, it gives me this message "adb is not recognized as an internal or external command"

i think the problem here is im using a portable adt plugin and also a portable eclipse. is there anyway to install a downloaded apk file in my portable emulator?
