I wanted to share my experience with the KB5058379 update. Yesterday, we had several laptops booting into Windows Recovery or asking for BitLocker recovery keys right after installing this update. It's been a frustrating situation, as last night, another six devices overseas experienced similar problems, and this morning, more were reported in Australia.
As a workaround, I found that disabling Trusted Execution (often referred to as TXT) in the BIOS can help resolve these issues. Thanks to the user who posted this tip in the patch Tuesday thread! If you're managing updates through SCCM/WSUS, it might be wise to unapprove the update or pause quality updates in your Intune deployment for a week or two while Microsoft works on a fix.

Ugh, not again! Seems like their new AI developers are really dropping the ball here. I mean, could it really be worse? We need this update like a hole in the head!
Time to bring out my Microsoft complaints again: check out this link to some of my past rants! https://imgur.com/a/17D9xPF
Thanks for the heads up! This has been a problem for HP laptops running Windows 10 22H2, especially the 830/Zbook G9-G11 in our pilot group. I just unapproved the update to prevent further issues.
What brand are you using? In my experience with Lenovo, I couldn’t find the Trusted Execution option in the BIOS for ThinkPads, but there’s something similar called Intel VT-d. It’s strange; we haven't seen these issues with the newer KBs.
I'm from Brazil, and we have several DELL Latitude 5420s here facing the same problem!
Are there particular hardware models, manufacturers, or Windows versions (like 22H2 or 23H2) that are more vulnerable to these KB5058379 issues? Or is it affecting a bunch of different setups?
What? Nobody even checks for that! This is Microsoft we’re talking about!
Yeah, I've seen this issue pop up with many Windows 10 Enterprise devices at my organization. Although, there was one case where a device installed the KB update with no problems. Most, however, encountered issues and needed the BitLocker recovery key upon booting.
We’re using Dell Latitude 5450s with Windows 10 and have run into this issue. Luckily, the newer Latitude models with Windows 11 don't seem to be affected.
Haha, right? They'll probably say it's a "feature" to enhance the way their AI learns with all the data from these glitches!
