MIUI 12.6 21.5.20/21

Sorry for the vote but it was so much easyer before. After several attempts I managed to install TWRP. But it seems to be all in Chinese. Thus I can't use it after booting to it. The built in installer tells me about encrypted storage and then wants to boot to recovery, asking me if to proceed. Pressing "yes" doesn't cause any reaction. So, how can I update now? Will there be another fastboot file?
This one; twrp-3.5.1.A10-apollo-geoanto555.img
From here; https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=318203
Only for Mi 10T Pro!

1. We don't know what device you're talking about.
2. You can change the language, it's only the first screens that can be problematic.
Mi11-TWRP.3.5.1-Recovery-v21.5.10. I was told in the description to use this one. Can I just install yours now?
Sorry again, it's a Mi 11. No, this does not work any more. Should I somehow remove this TWRP? And to wellguy: There only are chinese captions, so I don't know.
It does not boot to TWRP but to MIUI Recovery. So the installation must have gone wrong.

I don't know what you did but the changelog posted by the developers is very clear about it.
1) Download the recovery for MI 11 into your PC fastboot folder ( the file you are talking about is right )
2) have the ROM on your phone.
3) boot your phone in fastboot mode & connect it to your PC
4) fastboot boot the_recovery.img
5) once TWRP is up in Chinese and asking for a pass,
there are 2 buttons, hit the right one and change language.
6) type you pass in
7) install the ROM which will care about TWRP by itself.

Tanks osnix. Where do I get the pass? Where do I find the fastboot folder? Is it on the PC? The recovery means just the img-file?

Well, it is your password/pin.
As a note, mine failed to decrypt on the first try but retyping it a second time worked.

Well, you need to install fastboot / adb if you want to use them.
See there as an example:
Using ADB and fastboot | LineageOS Wiki
wiki.lineageos.org
There is somewhere some installer too, however, I'm the wrong person
to ask about Windows things, I don't use Windows for decades.
Both fastboot and adb are installed. There is an adb-folder containing fastboot exe. Maybe I'll try this one later. The link you posted was the first one I found but it did not really help. Thanks for your help and patience.Well, you need to install fastboot / adb if you want to use them.

Then put the recovery image into that adb-folder, also be sure you open Windows CMD with
Administrator rights when using fastboot.

The fastboot flashing scripts were empty due to typo Xiaomi made in vendor props.
No, was built as recovery due to the same typo. Already removed.

How are you downloading the ROM?
Not sure why this happens to you but I downloaded the file on my PC
and is matching the MD5sum listed on https://androidfilehost.com/
for it.
