Custom ROM fix ® provided a download and full guide on how to install Galaxy S6 Edge+ TWRP recovery below.
÷ Supported Devices
•SAMSUNG Galaxy S6 Edge+, model no. SM-G928C

÷ How To Install:
Step 1: Download Odin and TWRP recovery file .
Step 2: Install Galaxy S6 Edge+ driver . Double click the .exe file of drivers to begin installation. (Not required if you have already done this.)
Step 3. Extract the Odin file. You should get this file, Odin3 v3.10.6.exe (other files could be hidden, hence not visible).
Step 4: Disconnect your Galaxy S6 Edge+ from PC if it is connected.
Step 5:Enable OEM unlock on your device.
Go to Settings > About device. And then tap on build no. 7 times or until your get the message "You’re now a developer"

Power off your Galaxy S6 Edge+. Wait 6-7 seconds after screen goes off.
Press and hold the three buttons Power + Home + Volume down together until you see warning screen.
Press Volume Up to continue to download mode.
Step 7: Double click on extract file of Odin, Odin3 v3.10.6.exe to open the Odin window, Be careful with Odin, and do just as said to prevent problems.
Step 8: Connect your Galaxy S6 Edge+ to PC now using USB cable. Odin should recognize your Galaxy S6 Edge+. It’s a must. When it recognizes, you will see Added!! message appearing in the Log box in bottom left, and the first box under ID:COM will also show a no. and turn its background blue.
You cannot proceed until you get the Added!! message, which confirms that Odin has recognized your device.
If you don’t get Added!! message, you need to install/re-install drivers again, and use the original cable that came with the device. Mostly, drivers are the problem (look at step 2 above).
You can try different USB ports on your PC too, btw.
Step 9: Load the TWRP file into Odin. For this, click the AP button on Odin and the select the file: TWRP-2.8.7.1-Alpha_G928C.tar.md5.

Step 11: Click the Start button on Odin now to start flashing the firmware on your Galaxy S6 Edge+. Wait till installation is finished, after which your Galaxy S6 Edge+ will reboot automatically. You’ll get PASS message as upon successful installation from Odin.
If Odin gets stuck at setup connection, then you need to do this all again. Disconnect your device,close Odin, boot device into download mode again, open Odin, and then select the firmware and flash it again as said above.
If you get FAIL in the top left box, then also you need to flash the firmware again as stated just above.
That’s it. Enjoy the TWRP recovery v2.8.7.1 on your Galaxy S6 Edge+.

However I am stuck at the first step. After enabling developer options I have no "OEM unlock option", and from what I understand I can permanently brick the device without it if something goes wrong?
Is there's a way to enable that option? If not how big is the risk of bricking the device if I continue with that tutorial, assuming that tutorial is correct and up to date?
Thanks in advance to anyone who replies.

Yah i have the same peoblem and i did find No answer for this issue ..

You realize you're following a manual that isn't made for your phone right?
A500FU is Galaxy A5 2015.
A510F is Galaxy 2016.
Don't try to use a file that isn't made for your phone.
Just follow the first post here. Read the whole post before doing anything!
This will trip knox which may void warranty.
