Microsoft has swiftly launched an urgent out-of-band (OOB) update, identified as KB5070773, to tackle a pesky Windows 11 glitch that rendered USB input devices such as mice and keyboards non-functional within the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE). This problem emerged following the deployment of the KB5066835 security update earlier this month, impacting devices operating on Windows 11 versions 24H2, 25H2, and Windows Server 2025. This rapid response from Microsoft aims to ensure users can continue utilizing their USB peripherals without interruption, highlighting the company’s commitment to maintaining seamless user experiences across its platforms.
