How to fix iPhone stuck in recovery mode on a Windows PC?

If you’re running old software on your computer, you might hit a snag. Sometimes iTunes or Finder just doesn’t play nice with your device if it’s got an outdated version. So you’ll have to take the time to update everything, and if your computer is acting slow, that can drag things out even more. Not fun! You might see error messages (like those pesky error 4013 or 9 ones) that pop up, and then you’re left scratching your head, wondering what the heck went wrong.

Fixing iPhone stuck in recovery mode via iTunes or Finder can feel like watching paint dry. Honestly, it can take a while. You’re first waiting for the software to download, then for the installation process, and sometimes there’s a backup process involved too. If you’re in a rush to get things done.

If your iPhone 15 is still stuck in recovery mode after trying the above methods, it may be a more serious issue. Consider reaching out to Apple Support or visiting an Apple Store. They can perform more advanced diagnostics and assist further.

Important Considerations
Restoring your iPhone will erase all data on it, so if you have a backup, you can restore your data after the process.
If you are under warranty or have AppleCare, contacting Apple directly is advisable to avoid further issues.
