Please install latest updates: in NetBeans go to Help->Check for updates. It should install fix for this issue. After installing the updates, go to project properties to Karma configuration and press Search again. It should find something like

MyProject\node_modules\.bin\karma.cmd

if it doesn't find, try to look for it "manually", it should be something like that. Notice that "cmd" file type. 

Closing as works for me. If the above won't help you, could you please attach the project here (or create a simple new one where we can reproduce the issue)? Thank you in advance.
