Okay, well you can't use adb without enabling usb debugging in developer options. So it's either blocked on your device or you're not looking in the right spot:
Settings>About Phone>Software Information

 
sorry but i can't understand the video, so what commands are you trying? when you say run with adb, there is nothing to run. you open up a command window and enter adb commands. what commands are you trying?

edit: are you sure you are using the command path correctly?
 
So what happens now when you connect the device to your PC. Does it give you a notification about USB debugging?

What happens when you run the command adb devices ?

Make sure your screen is unlocked when you do this the first time. You may need to authorize the PC via a pop-up on the device screen.
 
it tryd to install updates then said failed and reverting changes, so i guess now its running file checks
 
That's good. I think that was installing drivers and stuff. Try adb devices again and take a screenshot of the command window
