Tutorial How to use bootra1n on Windows (Checkra1n)

Snipsnip · April 2, 2020

Hello everyone!

I’ve recently seen that some people don’t know how to jailbreak their iPhone’s because they’re on Windows, so here is a guide to learn. There are very few steps, and they’re very easy to follow, so if you’re looking to jailbreak, keep reading.

What you’ll need:

- A computer

- A USB with at least 512 mb of storage

1. Download bootra1n from here: https://github.com/foxlet/bootra1n/releases/tag/0.9.8.2

Download the version that is for your architecture, but for the sake of this tutorial, download the 64 bit version

2. Download the latest version of Rufus from: https://rufus.ie

3. Plug in your USB, open Rufus, and make sure your USB is selected. Then, where it says “Boot selection,” find the ISO you just downloaded for bootra1n and select it.

4. Click start, and let it finish.

Now you have a bootable USB! If you don’t know how to use a bootable USB, please read this and go to the Windows section: https://www.acronis.com/en-us/articles/usb-boot/

Thank you for reading this, and please reply if you have any questions or comments, or any issues. I’ll try help as much as I can.

I see your point. Bootra1n is just what it’s called, but what you’re doing is flashing linux onto a small flash drive with checkra1n and it’s dependencies installed, and then running it via CLI or via the CLI GUI. Plus, Rufus is only used on Windows.
