Well, speaking the things shortly - you've not understood the things under the hood and tried to ram them into the workflow. Now - in details.

1. A Snowflake is not a pluggable transport itself, it's a browser plugin allowing people who are not censored to share their connection. There's no specific "snowflake transport"
2. Your OBFS4 pluggable transport binary is not working - the error logs are clearly stating that. Grab a source and compile it by hand in GoLang locally - it is as easy as it sounds.
3. Using any spaces in directory names confuses Tor, so just make them DOS-like, I'm using it like c:\\Tor\\... it just works
4. Set a LogLevel to debug - yes, it produces a lot of text, but it really helps to troubleshoot things
