Where to copy twrp img file in order to root

[cmichael258]

I have read multiple instructions regarding how to root the Pixel XL (non Verizon) which look pretty straight forward; however, one instruction set said to copy the twrp img file to the adb folder while another set of instructions said to copy the twrp img file to the Partition-Tools sub folder. Wondering which is correct (or does it matter)?

Thanks for your help.

If adb.exe and fastboot.exe are in your path, just open a command prompt in the directory the twrp img file is in and run the commands. If not, copy the img file to the directory with adb and fastboot, open a command prompt there, and run the commands. Another alternative is to open a command prompt in the directory with adb and fastboot, and run the commands with the full path of the img file.
