Kubuntu 20.04 LTS running on my laptop does a very good job at recognizing many phones via ADB without any issue! 🙂

However when I need some Windows tool(s) for specific phones or issues I use a older laptop that is running Windows 7 Home 64-bit as my "Dedicated Phone Flashing Machine" 😃

Also :

After flashing a Custom Recovery you should simply tell the phone to reboot into the OEM Recovery and not from the Image File on your PC 😉
So try this :

fastboot oem reboot-recovery
