I am trying to follow this guide:

https://drfone.wondershare.com/unlock/android-show-wifi-password.html

However, the command:

adb pull /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf c:/wpa_supplicant.conf

That they've listed in that guide is not working, I get the following error:

adb: error: remote object '/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf' does not exist

I am on a Samsung Galaxy S5 -- no root -- w/ Android 5.0.

Is the wifi stuff kept somewhere else, is there a better guide?

hi everyone, super quick Windows 10 question.

I installed the minimal ADB and fastboot and it works when I launch the cmd prompt from the start menu. "start > programs > Minimal ADB"

BUT.... if I go to a folder that has a ROM that I want to flast and I do the "shift, right click, open cmd prompt here" and type "adb devices" I get a responce "

'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Vampirefo who is a Linux user just guessed that I didnt install this program "system wide". Any help. I'm trying to download a build.prop but it doesnt seem to want to pull it from my ARES 8 tablet and if I create a adb_file and cd to that file on my computer and run the adb pull system I get the error

Windows (or CMD.EXE) does not find your ADB.EXE cause the location you installed it is not part of the search path.

You should add the indtallation-directory to the path environment. Say you installed it to C:\adb you should add C:\adb to the path using

set path ℅path℅;c:\adb

Thank you so much. @vampirefo directed me here.

This prompted me during install to install "system wide". I no longer needed "adb" in the path when pulling the system.prop file

so since i effd up my note 4 retail ... trying to convert to dev again ... im screwed ? i have downloaded the platform tools and the minimal adb .... NOTHING is working .... what do i need to do .... im running windows xp now
Just a ping, v1.4 makes adb crash on Windows XP if any user out there, v1.3.1 didn't. WSAPoll crash.
It appears that Minimal Android Tools 1.4 to be critically defective.

After testing Minimal Android Tools 1.4 on Windows XP, I get the error illiustrated in the attached picture to this post.

I am using Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3.

As far as I am aware Windows XP doesn't support WSAPoll. To install the adb drivers and fastboot drivers you will need to go to your device manufactures website and install the drivers they provide. If you are using a Nexus device the Android SDK has the full drivers. Let me know if you have any more questions I'll be happy to help you out!
Recent ADB builds are no longer compatible with Windows XP. Commit 3777d2e "adb: don't emulate fdevent or socketpair on Windows" in platform/system/core (dated 2016-02-17) introduced the usage of the WSAPoll() function, which is defined on Windows Vista and later and not present in Windows XP.

For Windows XP please download adb.exe from THIS THREAD. Thx to sfhub @ XDA

Guys, would be possible to create a 64 bit installer?
It is needed to sideload large zip files (like OnePlus 3T Nougat). Trying to use the standard version, it is unable to read the file, since it can't allocate it in the memory.
Thanks

Yes this can be done in the next update of MAF in the next couple of weeks. A new version is on the way once I get graduation from college done with fingers crossed on Sunday :cowboy:

I used this tool couple of years earlier for my MotoG 3rd gen.
Recently I acquired a RedMi Note 4 (India).

Is this "minimal ADB & fastboot" tool valid for RedMi Note 4 also?
Or Does I have to get additional USB drivers for it?

@shimp208 Do you have another mirror link to the portable version? Dropbox is dead. Thanks and great work :).

    Introduction

    ADB and Fastboot are arguably two of the most indispensable tools used when working with Android devices. If you really want to modify, debug, and tweak along with their countless uses in rooting, and other procedures ADB and Fastboot are a must for any Android device owner. Typically if you want to install ADB and Fastboot you have to download and setup the Android SDK (If you really want to learn about Android Development I highly recommend downloading and installing the full Android SDK from here), but this can be unnecessary for people who just want to install ADB and Fastboot. To simply the process I created a windows installer that will install the latest version of ADB and Fastboot for you quickly and easily. The total installation of Minimal ADB and Fastboot is around 2 MB in size (Compared to the 90+ MB size of the Android SDK Tools, and 425+ MB size of the complete Android SDK) making it very lightweight.

    Features

    • Easily Install ADB and Fastboot with a simple to use installer
    • Lightweight, total installation around 2 MB in size
    How to Install

    Prerequisites
    • Your device is plugged into your computer
    • You have USB Debugging enabled under Developer Options (Note: This may be listed as ADB Debugging on some ROM's)
    • You have installed the necessary drivers and your computer is recognizing your device

    1. Download the Minimal ADB and Fastboot setup.exe from here
    2. Follow the Installers instructions and select where you would like to install Minimal ADB and Fastboot too (For simplicity I choose to install it to the Desktop)
    3. After you have chosen where to install Minimal ADB and Fastboot too select whether you would like to create a Start Menu Folder or not for the instalation
    4. Once you have chosen where to install it to and if you want to create a Start Menu Folder select the install option
    5. After the Installation Wizard has completed you can select to start Minimal ADB and Fastboot
    6. You can also start Minimal ADB and Fastboot by navigating to the Start Menu Folder you choose to create during installation or the desktop shortcut you choose to create and selecting Minimal ADB and Fastboot
    7. You should now see a command window open, with the command window open you can now issue ADB and Fastboot commands to your device

    For more information on issuing commands to your device using ADB and Fastboot I would recommend taking a look at this guide on ADB and this guide on Fastboot.
