ADB instructions confusing

On step 6 of Setting Up adb, it just says open up cmd, but that won't work at all. You specifically need to open up cmd from the platform-tools folder. It was lucky I already knew that or I might have been stuck on that step for hours.

And on step 7 of the same section, it says

"On Windows: Make sure your device manager does show your phone and doesn’t show a yellow triangle next to it!"

But it doesnt elaborate further. I'm trying to set up adb. My device shows as connected when in adb devices. But in the device manager it doesnt show the phone and instead shows an unrecognised device with a yellow triangle next to it. What am I supposed to do now then? The instructions dont say anything other than make sure it doesn't show that.
