While doing the latest iOS upgrade, the iPad is stuck at the "connect to PC" screen. The PC recognizes it as "Apple Recovery (iBoot) USB Composite Device". Is it bricked?

The Windows PC recognizes it as "Apple Recovery (iBoot) USB Composite Device". iTunes DOES NOT recognize it at all I have tried all those steps to no avail multiple times with the same results.
Hi RognvaldtheWise,
Thank you for your follow up. If you device is not showing up in iTunes then you will want to follow the steps in If your computer doesn't recognize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod.
Cheers!
Hi RognvaldtheWise,
Thanks for your follow up. Were you able to go through the steps in the link If your Windows PC doesn't recognize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod?
As mentioned in the resource we recommended previously, you will want to see if the same thing happens on a second computer. If you have the same issue on another computer, contact Apple Support.
Have a nice day!
