What is adb pull command?

It is a command used to pull/copy files from the Android device and save it to your PC.

Why is adb pull command not working?

If you are trying to pull files and directories below /data/data directory, you will need to run the daemon with root permissions to be able to use the pull command as files and folders under these directories are not available for average user's access.
