When I press the runme.bat in the C:\android-sdk\platform-tools folder with the local.prop present… a quick CMD screen pops up and doesn’t push the file into my phone. How can we fix this?

We recommend doing it using the USB cable.
I don’t find (or know where) the “runme.bat” file is located. I have completed all the steps up to this one. Any direction??
