About this tag
Windows 11 OOB updates are emergency out-of-band fixes released by Microsoft between regular Patch Tuesday cycles to address critical regressions. Recent examples include January 2026 OOB updates that restored Remote Desktop authentication and fixed a Secure Launch shutdown bug, following an earlier October OOB that repaired a Windows Recovery Environment USB input failure.
