So this issue has been going on for almost a month now,event viewer is showing tons of these errors,i have 3 windows 10 installations and in each the error is there.Even tried to do a clean install on my main pc today to see if it would go away but to no effect.

This is the error:

Autopilot.dll WIL error was reported.

HRESULT: 0x80070491

File: onecoreuap\admin\moderndeployment\autopilot\dll\dllmain.cpp, line 178

Message: NULL

I searched a bit trough the comunity and found out that there are tons of people having the exact same problem.

    Understood. Unfortunately those scans found no problems. It's possible the freezing I'm experiencing is unrelated to the Autopilot errors, but I noticed them when I was investigating and the 1000+ errors per week seemed like a good place to start.

    Almost one year and still we don't have a fix for that. I have random freezes because of the autopillot.dll. A lot of people have genuine Windows key and a brand new PC/Laptop and Microsoft staff are doing nothing...

    I did a fresh reset of my Windows 11 to see if it would fix the problem. In the time between my first login to Windows at 4:22pm after the install and 4:39pm, I received this error 155 times.
