Answer 1

The adb.exe file will be located at your Android SDK folder, inside platform-tools

...android-sdk-pathplatform-toolsadb.exe

The default location where Android SDK is installed is:

C:Users<insert username here>AppDataLocalAndroidsdk

So adb will be located at:

C:Users<insert username here>AppDataLocalAndroidsdkplatform-toolsadb.exe

---

To access it on a command line, open cmd.exe and type:

cd C:Users<insert username here>AppDataLocalAndroidsdkplatform-tools

and then your normal command

adb <insert parameters here>
