      @stanwood Too many features to list! But you seem to have done it! Fabulous if I can get it working. I didn't find a separate download file for Fastboot. I downloaded a combination file. NRT ends up saying Fastboot not found.

              @jjconstr There's also this - " Install of device driver software was unsuccessful."

              Double check to make sure the windows driver for the Nexus 5 is installed in the computer

                  @rocket2nfinity I downloaded a combo file for ADB and Fastboot, yet NRT continues to say Fastboot not found. Maybe it is there somewhere though not in the correct folder. What is the correct folder? And does NRT need to be in that folder too?

                    @jjconstr Perhaps take a look at this documentation: https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/

                    You will have to open up a Command Prompt (or PowerShell) from the same directory as this ADB binary.

                      @jjconstr With Windows, as I recall, the driver often has to be installed twice - once in normal boot, once in recovery to get fastboot to work. Windows should prompt you each time it detects the device in normal boot and when you put it in recovery. Install the driver when it asks. You may need to download it from LGs site or from XDA-developers Nexus 5 forum thread.

                      I'm not currently using Windows, but last I did, any Android tool had to be in the same folder as fastboot and adb. It didn't matter where you put fastboot and adb, as long as they and the tool were in the same folder.

                          @rocket2nfinity Hmm, get that from LG? I thought NRT downloaded the drivers. Would that be folder specific as well? N
                          rt directed me to open USBdeview and uninstall android ADB interface devices, Samsung USB devices, any devices resembling Nexus, or with id numbers 18d1, or 04e8.

                              @jjconstr Once again, running Nexus toolkit from Windows 10 is very easy. Nothing else to do... I'm afraid you'll put a mess in your W7 PC...

                                @jjconstr It seems to from the description. I have never used this tool. But getting it directly from the manufacturer (or XDA) and installing it manually once in normal boot, once in recovery (maybe using one of your known working Nexus 5s) will solve the problem.

                                Windows will put the driver where it needs to go. You only need to make sure you have fastboot and adb installed in the same folder with the Nexus tool

                                  @stanwood No, not working yet. Sorry to be unclear. But the problem may be narrowed down. Maybe this folder stuff is hanging up the install. I'll also check for Nexus 5 windows driver is installed on the computer.

                                    Well, I can't help you further through Windows 7 (no skill to do it).

                                    Otherwise, you can try to do so in Ubuntu:

                                    Install ADB + Fastboot:

                                    sudo apt install adb
                                    sudo apt install fastboot

                                    Than download factory image here and follow instructions:

                                      @rocket2nfinity If I do upgrade to win 10, can I restore Win 7 later if I want? I have been making Windows Image Backups.

                                        @stanwood I'll certainly try that before upgrading to Win 10. I've heard some say they regret switching to it.

                                          @jjconstr I believe not. Try to make an iso back-up. But no guarantee...
