    PowerShell Window
  4. On the PowerShell Window, type the following command and HIT enter:
    adb reboot bootloader

    (This will reboot the device into fastboot/bootloader mode.)
    └ If you get a permission pop-up on your device to “Allow USB debugging”, tap OK.
    Mi Fastboot

  5. Once you are in the fastboot mode, type the following command and HIT enter:
    fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.3.1-0-olive.img

    (The command ends with the file name. If the file name changes in a newer version, type “fastboot flash recovery <your-changed-name here.img”)
