Microsoft Confirms Windows 11 October 2025 Update Issues
Microsoft has confirmed that the Windows 11 October 2025 Update breaks WinRE (Windows Recovery Environment) input, rendering it useless due to a bug that blocks mouse or keyboard functionality.
- WinRE is a crucial feature of the OS, allowing users to recover the operating system when Windows refuses to boot.
- WinRE automatically appears when Windows encounters a BSOD (Blue/Black screen of Death error).
- Other use cases of WinRE include configuring Windows boot options with multiple installations across partitions or USB drives.
The issue originates from Windows 11 KB5066835, which also breaks localhost.
This bug prevents users from navigating WinRE, making it an essential issue to be addressed.
