Microsoft has swiftly issued an urgent out-of-band (OOB) update, identified as KB5070773, to tackle a pesky glitch in Windows 11 that rendered USB input devices, such as mice and keyboards, non-functional within the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE). This hiccup emerged following the KB5066835 security update released earlier this month, impacting systems equipped with Windows 11 versions 24H2, 25H2, as well as Windows Server 2025. The prompt action by Microsoft aims to ensure users can continue to navigate recovery processes seamlessly, restoring full functionality to their essential peripherals.
