I received the Patch Tuesday releases today. KB4532693, KB4537759 and KB4538674 dropped in the first wave and all installed successfully. On a subsequent "Check for Updates" KB4524244 downloaded and installed but on the reboot, it rebooted the first time but froze hard on the second re-boot with Step 2 information and a frozen spinner on my screen, no keyboard or any access. After about 15 mins I finally forced the system down. On the reboot, my Secure Boot flagged me that the keys were corrupted. I was able to get those repaired and reboot into the system. I rebooted a couple more times but no updates attempted to install. On a third "Check for updates, the same (KB4524244) update attempted to download but freezes the system at 94% on the download. Again freezes hard requiring a hard re-set. I tried flushing the Software Distribution cache but get the same results.
FYI: I am running Windows defender with VBS (Credential Guard and Hypervisor enforced Code Integrity on an HP EliteDesk 705 G4 MT with a AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2400G with Radeon Vega Graphics. I also have a similar set up running on an HP laptop (Intel i5), but the update installed fine on it.

PCR,
I tried the suggestion to press F12 at the Lenovo logo. I tried to both tapping, press and hold, etc. I get the same message I get from pressing F1 on the Recovery screen. I get a message that says "to interrupt normal startup press enter." When I press enter nothing happens and if I let this run it just loops back to the original recovery screen that I posted the photo of.
I appreciate your suggestions so if you have any other ideas I'm all ears.
Did you just take that problematic update KB4524244?
It may or may not be the cause of a sign-in problem -- Microsoft just doesn't say what it causes besides "issues". But I would uninstall it as soon as possible. I just uninstalled mine over stuff showing up in Reliability Monitor. Microsoft is working on a new one anyway. It doesn't ask for a reboot after uninstall, but I plan to do one soon anyway.
Look this over, & post back any further question...

There are many threads on sign-in problems that aren't pretty, like this one...

(1) When you press F1 on that screenshot, it tries to go to a Recovery Partition. It won't be there, if you chose to delete it at the end of making your USB Recovery drive.
(2) I think the 1903 USB Recovery drive should boot & work. Plug it in, turn on the computer, & try PF12 at the Lenovo logo. You may have to press & hold it. Or maybe you have to repeatedly press/release it. When at the Boot Menu screen, select the UEFI option, if two are offered for the USB drive.
(3) If that fails to boot, make & try Installation media. See whether you can get to its Recovery Environment.
