These are the guidelines to root the Teclast X98 PLUS running on the Android 5.1 Lollipop update and Windows 10.

Like you know, the Teclast comes in both the Android operating system and the Windows operating system. You can use this guide for either. Just be aware that you might need a new guide once your Android operating system shift up from Android 5.1.

Files You Need

Update: The developer took down the files. Check this XDA thread for updates.
