Doesn't look like you are running fastboot from the folder that contains fastboot.exe

So where should I put fastboot.exe I'm coming from Sammy so a bit new to this

You can put it in c:\users\sophie\ if you like but its worth keeping handy

so move all the files (adb.exe, adbwinapi.dll, adbwinusbapi.dll and fastboot.exe) to say c:\android

Then from command prompt type

cd c:\android
fastboot

you also need to have your phone in fastboot mode of course

Its a little different than Samsung, but much easier

This has nothing to do with OEM, this is basic WIndows functionality. Fastboot.exe is located in the same place as adb.exe, you have to navigate there first. But you can stop wasting your time if you got a Verizon phone, you can't unlock the bootloader with htcdev.

Well they are a UK user on EE so I doubt they got a Verizon device.
I hope we see a Verizon solution soon.

Although regardless you need to make sure you run the command prompt from teh same folder that contains fastboot.exe ;p

For Verizon:

Does anyone know if we can edit CID to 11111111 without s-off?

That should spoof the htcdev system into letting us unlock.
