Open the platform tools folder. Rightclick anywhere inside the folder whilst holding shift key. You will find an option called "Open command window here"
Click on that and continue flashing the recovery. "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
ok I think im making progress but now it says "error: cannot open 'recovery.img"

See point 2 above. I bet it's recovery.img.img but you MUST turn of the hide extensions setting in Windows to know for sure

I didn't tell him to unlock using adb did I? Merely pointing out to do it manually, he must have had to download adb to his computer, given that he's not even sure how he unlocked his bootloader.
