Iphone Img create

Hey there, I tried to create an img file of my old iPhone 5s.
Using this instruction
https://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/Recover ... _an_iPhone
But it always says I use an invalid dd command or dd comma d is unknown

I am running this with an windows 10 PC...
Perhaps this Windows PC doesn't know the command?

Any ideas?

The procedure is for Linux or macos X.
Under Windows, you need to follow https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/window ... tall-win10 to install WSL first.

Thank you so far.
Do I just need wsl or Linux also?

OK I now installed wsl and virtual machine...
Still dd invalid or unknown.

Another problem is, that the iPhone is not shown as a hard drive when connected to pc. So I think I have to enter the command on the iPhone terminal and not in windows itself...

It seems the whole command is wrong for windows... Anyone any idea how to fix this?

I tried following
dd if=\dev\rdisk0 | ssh -C username@IP of=C:\Users\iPhone.img bs=4096

Then I got for rdisk0 invalid argument
0+0 records in
0+0 records out

And after entering password for ssh I got wrong "of" command
