Date added: August 29, 2024
The Autopilot deployment report was updated to a new infrastructure that doesn't currently support column sorting. The issue will be addressed in the future.
Auto logon for Kiosk device profile only partially fixed
Date added: August 21, 2024
The know issue of Kiosk device profiles not auto logging in when auto logon was enabled was previously reported as fixed. However, there are scenarios where the issue might still occur when using autologon with Kiosks and Assigned Access. If multiple reboots or unexpected reboots occur during the Windows out-of-box experience (OOBE) when initially configuring the Kiosk, the autologon entries in the registry might be deleted. The issue is being investigated.
The following workarounds are available until the issue is resolved:
Apply or reapply the kiosk profile after Windows Autopilot completes.
Apply the autologon registry entries either manually or via a script. For example:
BitLocker encryption defaults to 128-bit when 256-bit encryption is configured
Date added: July 8, 2024
In some Windows Autopilot deployments of unregistered devices, BitLocker encryption might default to 128-bit even though the admin configured 256-bit encryption due to a known race condition. The issue is being investigated. Microsoft recommends that customers who need 256-bit BitLocker encryption register devices for Autopilot.
Required apps aren't shown on the Enrollment Status Page (ESP) after an Autopilot Reset
Date added: May 17, 2024
When an Autopilot Reset happens, the required apps aren't installed on the Enrollment Status Page (ESP) before the user reaches the desktop. The apps aren't tracked on the ESP, but the apps are installed when the user signs in to the desktop.
Enrolled date for Autopilot device is incorrect
Date added: November 1, 2023
The Enrolled date in the Devices | All devices and Windows | Windows devices panes display the date the device was registered to Autopilot instead of the date it was enrolled to Autopilot. For a more accurate date for when the device enrolled to the tenant:
Use the Windows Autopilot deployment report for recently deployed devices.
Filtering Windows Autopilot devices not working as expected
Date added: July 14, 2023
Viewing Windows Autopilot devices within Intune might not work as expected if attempting to filter results. While this issue is being worked on, a workaround is to use Microsoft Graph API to properly query and filter necessary devices.
TPM attestation isn't working on some platforms with Infineon SLB9672 discrete TPMs
Date added: June 2, 2023
Platforms with the Infineon SLB9672 TPM with firmware release 15.22 with EK certificate might fail with error message Something happened, and TPM attestation timed out. To resolve this issue, contact the OEM for an update.
Kiosk device profile not auto logging in
Date added: January 30, 2023
Date updated: August 21, 2024
There's currently a known issue in the following Windows Updates released in January 2023:
If these updates are installed on a device, Kiosk device profiles that have auto logon enabled won't auto log on. After Autopilot completes provisioning, the device stays on the sign-in screen prompting for credentials. To work around this known issue, manually enter the kiosk user credentials with the username kioskUser0 and no password. After the username is entered with no password, it should go to the desktop. This issue should be resolved in cumulative updates released for Windows 11 in April 2023 and Windows 10 in March 2023:
TPM attestation isn't working on AMD platforms with ASP fTPM
Date added: December 1, 2022
TPM attestation for AMD platforms with ASP firmware TPM might fail with error code 0x80070490 on Windows systems. This issue is resolved on later versions of AMD firmware. Consult with device manufacturers and firmware release notes for which firmware versions contain the update.
TPM attestation failure with error code 0x81039001
Date added: October 6, 2022
Some devices might intermittently fail TPM attestation during Windows Autopilot pre-provisioning technician flow or self-deployment mode with the error code 0x81039001 E_AUTOPILOT_CLIENT_TPM_MAX_ATTESTATION_RETRY_EXCEEDED. This failure occurs during the Securing your hardware step for Windows Autopilot devices deployed using self-deploying mode or pre-provisioning mode. Subsequent attempts to provision might resolve the issue.
Autopilot deployment report shows "failure" status on a successful deployment
Date added: September 22, 2022
The Autopilot deployment report (preview) shows a failed status for any device that experiences an initial deployment failure. For subsequent deployment attempts, using the Try again or Continue to desktop options, the deployment state in the report doesn't update. If the user resets the device, a new deployment row is shown in the report with the previous attempt remaining as failed.
Autopilot deployment report doesn't show deployed device
Date added: September 22, 2022
Autopilot deployments that take longer than one hour might display an incomplete deployment status in the deployment report. If the device successfully enrolls but doesn't complete provisioning after more than one hour, the device status might not be updated in the report.
Autopilot profile not being applied when assigned
Date added: June 15, 2022
In Windows 10, version 21H2 April 2022 and some May 2022 update releases, there's an issue where the Autopilot profile might fail to apply to the device. Additionally, the hardware hash might not be harvested. As a result, any settings made in the profile might not be configured for the user such as device renaming. To resolve this issue, apply KB5015020 cumulative update or later to the device.
DefaultuserX profile not deleted
Date added: March 28, 2022
When the EnableWebSignIn CSP is used, the defaultuserX profile might not be deleted.
Autopilot reset ran into trouble. Could not find the recovery environment
Date added: March 28, 2022
When an Autopilot reset is attempted, the following message is displayed:
Autopilot reset ran into trouble. Could not find the recovery environment
If there isn't an issue with the recovery environment, enter administrator credentials to continue with the reset process.
Device-based Conditional Access policies
Date added: March 3, 2022
The Intune Enrollment app must be excluded from any Conditional Access policy requiring Terms of Use because it isn't supported. See Per-device terms of use.
Exceptions to Conditional Access policies to exclude Microsoft Intune Enrollment and Microsoft Intune cloud apps are needed to complete Autopilot enrollment in cases where restrictive polices are present such as:
Conditional Access policy 1: Block all apps except those apps on an exclusion list.
Conditional Access policy 2: Require a compliant device for the apps on the exclusion list.
In this case, Microsoft Intune Enrollment and Microsoft Intune should be included in that exclusion list of policy 1.
If a policy is in place such that all cloud apps require a compliant device (there's no exclusion list), by default Microsoft Intune Enrollment is excluded, so that the device can register with Microsoft Entra ID and enroll with Intune and avoid a circular dependency.
Hybrid Microsoft Entra devices: When Hybrid Microsoft Entra devices are deployed with Autopilot, two device IDs are initially associated with the same device - one Microsoft Entra ID and one hybrid. The hybrid compliance state displays as N/A when viewed from the devices list in the Azure portal until a user signs in. Intune only syncs with the Hybrid device ID after a successful user sign-in.
The temporary N/A compliance state can cause issues with device based Conditional Access polices that block access based on compliance. In this case, this behavior of Conditional Access is intended. To resolve the conflict, a user must to sign in to the device, or the device-based policy must be modified. For more information, see Conditional Access: Require compliant or Microsoft Entra hybrid joined device.
Conditional Access policies such as BitLocker compliance require a grace period for Autopilot devices. This grace period is needed because until the device is rebooted, the status of BitLocker and Secure Boot aren't captured. Since the status isn't't captured, it can't be used as part of the Compliance Policy. The grace period can be as short as 0.25 days.
Device goes through Autopilot deployment without an assigned profile
Date added: March 2, 2022
When a device is registered in Autopilot and no profile is assigned, the default Autopilot profile is taken. This behavior is by design. It makes sure that all devices registered with Autopilot go through the Autopilot experience. If the device shouldn't go through an Autopilot deployment, remove the Autopilot registration.
White screen during Microsoft Entra hybrid joined deployment
Date added: February 19, 2022
There's a UI bug on Autopilot Microsoft Entra hybrid joined deployments where the Enrollment Status page is displayed as a white screen. This issue is limited to the UI and shouldn't affect the deployment process.
This issue was resolved in September 2022.
Virtual machine failing at "Preparing your device for mobile management"
Date added: February 19, 2022
When trying to use Windows Autopilot on a virtual machine (VM), the following error might occur:
"Preparing your device for mobile management
To resolve the issue, make sure the virtual machine is configured with a minimum of 2 processors and 4 GB of memory.
ODJConnectorSvc.exe leaks memory
Date added: February 19, 2022
When a proxy server is used with the ODJConnector service, the memory file can get too large when processing requests resulting in impacts to performance. The current workaround for this issue is to restart the ODJConnectSvc.exe service.
Reset button causes pre-provisioning to fail on retry
Date added: February 19, 2022

TPM attestation failure on Windows 11 error code 0x81039023
Date added: February 19, 2022
Some devices might fail TPM attestation on Windows 11 during the pre-provisioning technician flow or self-deployment mode with the error code 0x81039023. To resolve the issue, apply the May 2022 cumulative update for Windows 11, version 21H2 KB5013943 or later to the device.
Duplicate device objects with Microsoft Entra hybrid deployments
Date added: January 9, 2022
A device object is pre-created in Microsoft Entra ID once a device is registered in Autopilot. If a device goes through a hybrid Microsoft Entra deployment, by design, another device object is created resulting in duplicate entries.
TPM attestation failure on Windows 11 error code 0x81039024
Date added: December 8, 2021
Some devices might fail TPM attestation on Windows 11 during the pre-provisioning technician flow or self-deployment mode with the error code 0x81039024. This error code indicates that there are known vulnerabilities detected with the TPM and as a result attestation fails. If this error occurs, visit the PC manufacturer's website to update the TPM firmware.
Delete device record in Intune before reusing devices in self-deployment mode or Pre-Provisioning mode
Devices are enrolled using Autopilot self-deployment mode or pre-provisioning mode. If a device is redeployed so that it reruns the Autopilot deployment again, it fails with a 0x80180014 error code.
To resolve this error, use one of the following work around methods:
Delete the device record in Intune, and then redeploy the device so that it reruns the Autopilot deployment. For more information, see Deregister a device.
A non-assigned user can sign in when using user-driven mode with Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS)
In a Windows Autopilot user-driven Microsoft Entra joined environment, a user can be pre-assigned to a device. If the user is a cloud-native Microsoft Entra account, the username is enforced and the user is only asked for their password. There's no way to sign in with another user ID. However, when ADFS is used, the username assignment isn't enforced. A different user than the one assigned can sign in on the device.
Intune connector is inactive but still appears in the Intune Connectors
Inactive Intune connectors will be automatically cleaned up after 30 days of inactivity without admin interaction.
Autopilot sign-in page displays HTML tags from company branding settings
TPM attestation isn't working on Intel Tiger Lake platforms
TPM attestation support for Intel firmware TPM Tiger Lake platforms on devices with Windows 10, version 21H2 require the November 2021 cumulative update KB5007253 or later. Older versions of Windows aren't supported.
Blocking apps specified in a user-targeted Enrollment Status Profile are ignored during device ESP
The services responsible for determining the list of apps that should be blocking during device ESP aren't able to determine the correct ESP profile containing the list of apps because they don't know the user identity. As a workaround, enable the default ESP profile (which targets all users and devices) and place the blocking app list there. To avoid this issue, target the ESP profile to device groups.
That username looks like it belongs to another organization. Try signing in again or start over with a different account
Confirm that all of the information is correct in the registry key:
Windows Autopilot user-driven hybrid Microsoft Entra deployments don't grant users Administrator rights even when specified in the Windows Autopilot profile
This issue occurs when there's another user on the device that already has Administrator rights. For example, a PowerShell script or policy could create another local account that is a member of the Administrators group. To ensure this works properly, don't create another account until after the Windows Autopilot process is complete.
Windows Autopilot device provisioning can fail
These failures might be because of TPM attestation errors or ESP timeouts on devices where the real-time clock is off by a significant amount of time. For example, several minutes or more.
To fix this issue:
Boot the device to the start of the out-of-box experience (OOBE).
Establish a network connection (wired or wireless).
Run the command w32tm /resync /force to sync the time with the default time server (time.windows.com).
Windows Autopilot for existing devices doesn't work
During a Windows Autopilot for existing devices deployment, screens that are disabled in the Windows Autopilot profile are shown, such as the Windows License Agreement screen.
This issue happens because Windows deletes the AutopilotConfigurationFile.json file when Sysprep.exe runs with the /Generalize parameter. The Prepare Windows for Capture task in a Configuration Manager task sequence runs Sysprep.exe with the /Generalize parameter.
To fix this issue:
Edit the Configuration Manager task sequence and disable the Prepare Windows for Capture step.
Add a new Run command-line step that runs the following command:
This general error indicates a timeout. A common cause of this error in self-deploying mode is that the device isn't TPM 2.0 capable. For example, it's a virtual machine. Devices that aren't TPM 2.0 capable can't be used with self-deploying mode.
0x801c03ea
This error indicates that TPM attestation failed, causing a failure to join Microsoft Entra ID with a device token.
0xc1036501
The device can't do an automatic MDM enrollment because there are multiple MDM configurations in Microsoft Entra ID.
Pre-provisioning gives an error screen and the Microsoft-Windows-User Device Registration/Admin event log displays HResult error code 0x801C03F3
This issue can happen if Microsoft Entra ID can't find a Microsoft Entra device object for the device that is being deployed. This issue occurs the object was manually deleted. To fix it, remove the device from Microsoft Entra ID, Intune, and Autopilot, then re-register it with Autopilot, which recreates the Microsoft Entra device object. For more information, see Deregister a device.
To get troubleshooting logs, run the following command:
Error importing Windows Autopilot devices from a .csv file
Ensure that the .csv file isn't edited in Microsoft Excel or an editor other than Notepad. Some of these editors can introduce extra characters causing the file format to be invalid.
Windows Autopilot for existing devices doesn't follow the Autopilot OOBE experience
Ensure that the JSON profile file is saved in ANSI/ASCII format, not Unicode or UTF-8.
Something went wrong is displayed page during OOBE
The client is likely unable to access all the required Microsoft Entra ID/MSA-related URLs. For more information, see Networking requirements.
Using a provisioning package in combination with Windows Autopilot can cause issues, especially if the PPKG contains join, enrollment, or device name information
Using PPKGs in combination with Windows Autopilot isn't recommended.
Use Autopilot to deploy new hardware or refreshing an existing hardware with the organization’s desired configuration, without using the traditional imaging process.
Plan and execute an endpoint deployment strategy, using essential elements of modern management, co-management approaches, and Microsoft Intune integration.
