After the latest Windows 11 25H2 update, my Corsair USB keyboard as well as my Razer mouse macros were not working.

I had to do a second reboot after logging in to get them to work.

Downgraded from Synapse 4 to Synapse 3, same issue
Removed all profiles from mouse, reset, added just a single one, same issue
Always had to unplug and replug the keyboard after initial boot to just get it to work

Turning off FastBoot fixed everything! Seems rebooting once in the OS bypasses fast boot.
Now, when I just turn on the PC, everything works again, no second reboot needed.

Did you update to 25H2 manually or did MS sneak it in on you?

I just upgraded from Home to Pro with a new key yesterday and after finishing all the updating it’s still on 24H2.

I think you are confusing Fastboot, which is a bios setting, with Fast startup in windows. Fast startup in windows makes the computer "hibernate" instead of shutting down. A reboot forces a full shut down

Once you disable hibernation, you will not even have the option in your picture. I don't.
