## Section 1 - Set up iOS-OTA-Downgrader
1. Install [iTunes 12.6.5](https://secure-appldnld.apple.com/itunes12/091-87819-20180912-69177170-B085-11E8-B6AB-C1D03409AD2A6/iTunes64Setup.exe) or older.
- Make sure to not install the Microsoft Store version of iTunes.
- You may also use [iTunes 12.4.3 for older video cards](https://secure-appldnld.apple.com/itunes12/031-69284-20160802-7E7B2D20-552B-11E6-B2B9-696CECD541CE/iTunes64Setup.exe) instead
- Make sure to install iTunes in the default location in the C: drive.
1. Install [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org/#installation), follow steps 1 to 4 only. In step 4, untick "Run MSYS2 64-bit now" before clicking Finish.
- Make sure to install MSYS2 in the default location in the C: drive.
1. [Download iOS-OTA-Downgrader here](https://github.com/LukeZGD/iOS-OTA-Downgrader/releases/tag/latest) and extract the zip archive.
- You may also clone the repo: `git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/LukeZGD/iOS-OTA-Downgrader.git`
1. Start the script: Run `restore.cmd`.
- It may only show up as `restore`. If this is the case, run the one with the gears icon. I recommend to [make Windows show file extensions](https://www.howtogeek.com/205086/beginner-how-to-make-windows-show-file-extensions/) to avoid confusion.
1. On its first run, it will download and install dependencies. This will take some time depending on your Internet connection. When it's done, proceed to the next section.
