This thing fixed the issue. -escknx

Does it need administration privileges?
Cuz i don't have a laptop, and will be working on my company's pc!

Yes, it does need admin privileges to run the installation smoothly
I installed in my company laptop and works perfectly, but requires admin privileges.

Evidently you do. Tried running without admin and it wouldn't run. Installed fine after giving administration privilege.
Some companies may not appreciate installing stuff on their hardware. I know mine wouldn't.

I'm so f**ked up, i lost twrp, and even when try to flash it from win 8.1 with administrative privileges it gave me this error.
I flashed it the first time from win 10 , the only pc that I know has win 10 is the company's pc .
Now I'm stuck in an unofficial custom rom with lots of bugs.

Why are you using minimal adb and fastboot?, it is old and does not support latest phones.
Use my tool to do the installation for latest adb and fastboot drivers and then after installation just open command prompt (click on start menu -> type cmd -> press enter) and type your fastboot commands there.
Just check the youtube link below, if you are not sure how to open a command prompt

[mostafa asal]

Alright, will try that and give you feedback.

 

[mzeeshan2]

Thank you Fawaz. Installed perfectly.
To check the version use this command in a command prompt: fastboot --version

C:\Users\Administrator>fastboot --version
fastboot version 29.0.5-5949299
Installed as C:\Program Files\platform-tools\fastboot.exe

i still think minimal adb and fastboot is still quite viable till this day the only downside i see is it doesn't accept

adb root

as command other than that i don't see any problem

When you have new phone with new partition style, fastboot commands will not work on minimal adb and fastboot.
You will need new fastboot version to make it work with new partition style
For example,
fastboot -w command will not work in minimal adb and fastboot for phones with new partition style
see this for example (person gets errors when executing fastboot -w, for new phone):

:laugh:....Hell to the Yeah...Finally for the first time in my life I used adb/fastboot to run commands... (No toolkits). Unlocked bootloader last night today I'm planning to install custom recovery and root... I'm proud of myself for this.. All feedback appreciated... Thank you for this awesome tool...Trying to download twrp it says copy file into same folder as your adb/fastboot binaries. Rename the image to twrp.IMG... This might be stupid question but where does your tool put adb/fastboot folder a little

You don't have to copy the twrp.img to the installation folder, just pasted twrp.img in your desktop and then in your command prompt, use cd command to go to desktop.
For example this is how I would do:
1. Paste the twrp.img at desktop.
2. Open command prompt (start menu -> type cmd -> press Enter)
3. Type the following in command prompt
cd desktop (To move command prompt to desktop)
4. Now all the files at desktop are accessible by command prompt, now just flash the twrp image.

You can use cd command to move the directory and cd .. command to move to previous directory
And instead of pasting the twrp.img at desktop, you can paste it at any location you want and use cd command to move to that directory

Well is this at least correct?

Well is this at least correct?

Well, that is not the right way to do it, but if you still want to do this way, first type this in command prompt:
cd "C:\Program Files\platform-tools" (copy and paste the whole line including the double quotes in command prompt)

And now you can flash the twrp.img

Explanation:
The above command changes your directory to "C:\Program Files\platform-tools" in command prompt and that's why twrp.img is accessible
