bug(adb): "Adb not installed" error even though the reboot worked

[GingrPowr]

Describe the bug

I think that since I didn't installed ADB the way this project wants to (I used it before), after clicking [Reboot] the "ADB not installed on your system" error is displayed. But my connected device still rebooted, because I added my ADB install folder into my PATH environment variables. Worth to mention: it also worked before, to uninstall the 120+ bloatware that were reinstalled on my freshely reseted Samsung J5. So ADB is installed, works (I used it before today), is detected by the app and works with the app.

Expected behavior

Either:

• Fail and display error message,
• Work and don't display error message.

You have a solution?

Either:

• Do not use ADB installed in a different manner than what is asked in your installation guideline -> which would be a shame since it's currently working,
• Update the installation guideline, and the app error check, and keep using the ADB found in PATH -> preferred option.

I have same issue, it's such a hassle that they didn't think about the simplest thing ever

Download android platform tools and unzip it somewhere. https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip

Put the tool into this Folder and start it from there… it will work ;)

No, that will not resolve the bug, only hide it.
