Hello, I need to get the HtcBlinkFeed file onto my phone, it was erased and now phone wont work. I downloaded adb and android sdk, when i try to shift right click on the adb file i dont get the open command window prompt. Any help is appreciated! This is what I get: http://prntscr.com/8sr7c7 Thanks again!
 
adb is an executable program, so selecting "Open" (shown at the top of the image you posted) will run/launch it for you.

Welcome to our AndroidForums, by the way :).

Whenever i select 'open' the cmd opens and text quickly flies by. I'm new to this, but from what i've read i need to type in adb devices, then adb install C:\package.apk or something in the cmd.
And thanks for the welcome!
 
Hold shift and right-click on an empty space in the folder, not on adb.exe itself.
 
I just put the mouse pointer on the adb folder or whatever you want to name it. The name of the folder is irrelevant as long as you know what it is. Or cd into the folder. for example place the adb folder in the c drive. Then open cmd and type

cd c:\adb or if it's win XP cd c:/adb then run whatever commands are relevant to what you're intending to do.
