I just did a software update on my Mac and now my keyboard and mouse are not working. I do have limited function with my keyboard when it is plugged into the Mac. How do I get it to recognize them again?

I just finished the latest software update on my iMac. Since it restarted, it will not recognize the mouse or the keyboard. I have limited functions with the keyboard only if it plugged into the computer via a USB connector. How do I get it to recognize the keyboard and mouse?

iMac 21.5" 4K, 10.14

You can also try a SMC reset. The article covers when this is required, but doing this will not affect anything.
