I am trying to upload an hex file to my arduino pro micro using Avrdude . The thing is that I cannot upload any code using the Avrdude terminal commands , but when I use arduino IDE to upload any code it perfectly uploads the code to Arduino.
The command I am using on the terminal:
avrdude -C C:\Users\santi\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\arduino\tools\avrdude\6.3.0-arduino17/etc/avrdude.conf -v -V -patmega32u4 -cavr109 -PCOM15 -b57600 -D -U flash:w:C:\Users\santi\Documents\keyboard\corne\crkbd_rev1_layout_split_3x6_3_mine.hex:i
I already have avrdude on the environment variables on my windows 10 machine.
Output:

I keep waiting but it does not upload the code.
I added a push button for RST and GND pins to enter bootloader mode, and I am pressing the reset button. I even tried resetting twice quickly, but I get the same result.
I tried using the Arduino and the code gets uploaded.
I uploaded the following code:
int RXLED = 17;
void setup(){
pinMode(RXLED, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
digitalWrite(RXLED, LOW);
delay(1500);
digitalWrite(RXLED, HIGH);
delay(1500);
}
The command ran in the IDE is:
"C:\Users\santi\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\arduino\tools\avrdude\6.3.0-arduino17/bin/avrdude" "-CC:\Users\santi\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\arduino\tools\avrdude\6.3.0-arduino17/etc/avrdude.conf" -v -V -patmega32u4 -cavr109 -PCOM16 -b57600 -D "-Uflash:w:C:\Users\santi\AppData\Local\Temp\arduino-sketch-F0563C64AD4C1F392D3E71AA32E4F874/blink_nano.ino.hex:i"

I tried using the same Avrdude command in the terminal.

I don´t know why it uses a different port. I tried changing the port in that command but I get the same result as before

I could just use the arduino IDE to flash my device but the problem is that I only have the hex file. I am trying to flash my device with a hex file from QMK Configurator. I am trying to build a custom keyboard.
