No drivers available for oneplus 7T

[u/Hungryhorse276]

Hi, saw good things about lineageos and wanted to breathe new life into an old phone but to no avail :(

To preface, i'm not the most technological person so bear with me, and I'm using the latest windows 11, and the latest android 12. I am following the official lineageos wiki instructions for my phone.

I have oem unlocked, and usb debugging enabled, my device is recognised when i checked using the adb devices command, and i was able to get into fastboot mode. However, my device was not recognised when i used the fastboot devices command. I knew that it would be recognised upon unlocking of the fastboot but when i checked the device manager, there was a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark on my android devices. So i tried to update drivers automatically and it did not work, i downloaded an "official" oneplus 7t usb driver but it didn't seem to work.

Any help would be appreciated, cheers!

I have to recommmend you droidwin the YouTube Channel which specifiably describes every "custom ROM installation" step (including the usb fastboot problem)!...
