I've already done this plenty of time during the years.
I changed my PC some months ago and now i am in the need of flashing my "old" XZ premium and my new XZ3

My XZ premium is bootloader unlocked then no problem i can just use recovery zip or fastboot to flash.
My XZ3 is a different thing.

I can't find a way to istall fastboot flashmode driver.
Downloaded driver from the web and also iused driver in the driver folder of flashtool.

I alrerady tried:

1)Deactivating driver signature control (from andvanced rebbot and also from command prompt)

Still receiving the same error (and no unsigned driver istall popup appear)

Any idea?

Any idea?
Winodws assigns the wrong driver by default, even with driver signing disabled.
There are two drivers that can be used, depending on what you're trying to achieve.
Sony ADB
Google USB, I think this one os for connecting the phone when TWRP is running.

So push the phone into flashmode and open the device manager. Whatever USB device is listed (with yellow triangle), replace that device with Sony ADB, you'll have to do it manually - add device - from files - Sony ADB folder.

W10?
You must disable the Sig. Check.
I've wrote a link, how to disable this one in the thread for newflasher. (uncomfortable I haven't this one in this moment available) Otherwise search in the IN, it's the same was as for W Server 07

I want to use Flashtool in flashmode, not fastboot mode (green light (vol- when connecting usb)

No luck with signature check disabled
