Many persistent errors in Event Viewer after Windows 11 build 22598.ni_release.220408-1503: "Autopilot.dll wil error was reported"

Question

I used to be part of the the Windows 11 Insider Beta channel. After updating to build 22598.ni_release.220408-1503 I began to see the same error in Event Viewer extremely frequently:

The errors are all the same and read as follows:

Autopilot.dll WIL error was reported.

HRESULT: 0x80070491

File: onecoreuap\admin\moderndeployment\autopilot\dll\dllmain.cpp, line 128

Message: NULL

I have never used any program called Autopilot or Modern Deployment. After seeing this problem I immediately left the insider program and am now queued for enrollment. However no new Windows update has happened and these errors persist. How do I prevent these errors?

Hi Austin,

My name is Igor, I have 12 Microsoft MVP awards. It's a pleasure for me to help others and I'll do all my best to help you. I'm sorry you have a problems.

Seems this is a some inaccuracy in 22598 build. You may wait for newer build or return to regular builds. Unfortunately this required to reinstall Windows, there is no ways to revert to lower build number.

Sorry if I disappointed you.

Answer 2

I have since updated to 22610.1 and the errors persist.

Answer 3

I'm still getting them on 22616.1

Answer 4

Thank you, I have since updated to 22616.1 as well and the errors persist.

Answer 5

Got it in 22621.1

Don't know if it was there before.
