Default Do Windows experts exist who know how to make the Windows libmtp port work?

The holy grail is to run Windows commands on Android files over USB.

Do Windows experts exist who know how to make the Windows libmtp port work?
(Unfortunately, if you're not a Windows expert, you won't be able to help.)

This is a specific offshoot of the highly polluted thread on
o Mounting Android MTP filesystems as a drive letter on Windows over USB
Which solved nothing that wasn't already solved before it was asked.

I'm trying to move the ball forward, to increase our combined capabilities.
The holy grail is to run Windows commands on Android files over USB.

I think there may be a solution in "libmtp" because that's what Linux seems
to use, where Linux "just works" exactly like you want it to work.
o You plug in the MTP device & run commands on it directly over USB

I don't know enough about Windows to make the Windows libmtp port work.
Mainly, I don't know how to use the Windows libmtp port that exists.

Do you?

This is the libmtp code base:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/libmtp/

And this is the Windows port:
https://iweb.dl.sourceforge.net/project/libmtp/libmtp-win32/0.3.5-win32-1/libmtp-0.3.5-win32-bin.zip

*Do any experts exist on this ng who know how to make that port work?*
