Microsoft released an out-of-band hotpatch (KB5084897) for Windows 11 Enterprise systems to address a Bluetooth device visibility issue that prevented connected Bluetooth devices from appearing in Windows Settings or Quick Settings. The bug impacted device usability by obscuring available Bluetooth devices during discovery and pairing attempts, though devices remained functional and connected. The update was automatically deployed on March 17, 2026, to hotpatch-enabled Windows 11 versions 25H2 and 24H2 without requiring a system restart.
