Don’t worry, with the program called Kindle Fire Utility created by Vashypooh of XDA Developers Forum, you don’t need to learn ADB Program to be able to root and install recovery.

Known Tricks

• If you end up stuck at the yellow triangle, in KF Utility select Boot Normal, wait for it to say <waiting for device> and then press and hold the power button 20 seconds until the fire turns off, then when it’s off, turn it back on. This sometimes happens, I have yet to find a clean solution
• If you end up stuck with a yellow triangle, do not EVER unplug it. Leave it plugged in. Check the windows drivers to make sure it isn’t showing as “kindle” again. Fastboot is different and can cause this.

Congratulations, you have successfully rooted and install TWRP recovery on your Kindle Fire, you can now do whatever you like in your device like installing new ROMs, android market, installing rooted apps and many more.
