iRemovalRa1n Jailbreak

What is iRemovalRa1n?
iRemovalRa1n (iRa1n) is basically the checkra1n for Windows released inside iRemoval PRO 5 app. Siguza and many other checkra1n developers are aware of this project and have given permission to release it under a different name. iRemovalRa1n works with iOS 12.0 to iOS 14.8.1.
This Windows port of checkra1n and checkm8 exploit allows you to jailbreak iPhone 5s through iPhone X running on iOS 12 up to iOS 14. When checkra1n developers will make it possible to jailbreak iOS 15, iRemovalRa1n will also add support for the latest firmware.
checkra1n for Windows was never officially released due to a lack of proper kernel driver. iRemovalRa1n is a brand new jailbreak for Windows taking the advantage of the same methods to exploit iOS firmware via USB port by installing UsbDK Runtime Libraries.
iRemovalRa1n cloned the look of the original checkra1n application for macOS and Linux. Therefore, if you are familiar with the interface of checkra1n you will immediately know what to expect and how to jailbreak iOS on Windows. The heart of this jailbreak is checkm8 exploit.
axi0mX created this permanent unpatchable bootrom exploit that potentially ensured lifetime jailbreak ability for A5-A11 devices. It means every future iOS release should be vulnerable.
The exploit was released as an open-source project, and now it's also the engine behind iRemovalRa1n created for Windows. To install Cydia on your device with checkra1n for Windows it's required to connect your iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV via a USB cable (USB-A) to proceed.
iRemovalRa1n jailbreak is not working with the latest devices including iPhone 13 Mini, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Mini, iPhone 12 Pro Max iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro Max, iPhone XR, iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XS.
The jailbreak tool exploits the system and installs the Cydia app with access to thousands of tweaks and apps not available in the official App Store. As the original project, iRemovalRa1n uses Substrate, the powerful code injection library behind Cydia.
checkn1x was so far the only workaround to jailbreak iOS devices using checkra1n on a Windows PC. This Linux system (Light image, about 29 MB) could run from a USB drive, allowing you to jailbreak the iPhone from a PC. iRemovalRa1n runs as a native application for Windows.
checkra1n for Windows works on Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, and Windows 11. 32-bit and 64-bit platforms are supported. The jailbreak tool requires installing UsbDK Runtime Libraries by RedHat (support for Windows 7 – 10).
