    1. You need to find fastboot devices for your Zenfone 5, I'm suggesting you to install 15 seconds minimal ADB+Fastboot installer. (for Windows only) Just search on XDA.

  5. Guys if you have installed a previous version of TWRP or .img supported recovery, you can just flash this on your phone without any problems. Just select .img mode and select the .img you wanna flash. Flash it!
