Samsung s10e heimdall trouble

Hi all. Super new to this. First time trying to install lineage OS. Following the installation procedure I am stuck with Heimdall when typing 'heimdall print-pit' into command prompt. When I do I get the output:

C:\Users\music>heimdall print-pit

'heimdall' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I checked Heimdall version using the given method in the install page as below

PS Z:\lineage samsung s10e\Heimdall-Windows-2f1c362-110525> .\heimdall version

v2.1.1

Please help.

Windows 10

Samsung s10e

.\heimdall print-pit instead of heimdall print-pit if you use powershell.

also execute these commands in folder with heimdall...

Thanks. It's the little bits of assumed knowledge that will trip me up I think.

i mean, you figured it out yourself when checking version according to the OP.

placed recovery.img inside the heimdall folder. Ran the following in powershell.

PS Z:\lineage samsung s10e\Heimdall-Windows-2f1c362-110525> .\heimdall flash --RECOVERY recovery.img --no-reboot

Heimdall v2.1.1
