    Dell G5 w/ 16G Ram, Core i7, nvidia geforce RTX, Windows 11 22H2 9/20/2022

    I tried this earlier this month Oct 2022, and it created a new user account (would not let me use my User name and wanted me to make a work or student account (not applicable) without many of my programs (Flight Simulator is a 100s of gigabyte install) To get back to my account I had to delete the new account to get my valid user account and programs back. Pain to do.

    Because of the close to a Terabyte of installed software, I am not interested in a factory reset. I ran the Scannow and DISM fixes and did a repair install. I still get the BSOD for

    Autopilot.dll WIL error was reported.

    HRESULT: 0x80070491

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

    Message: NULL

    What's on line 128?????

    What is onecoreuap ???

    The User for these errors is: either "Me" or "System" or "Network Service"

    The event ID is 1010

    Many of the articles regarding "autopilot" issue refer to systems deployed by an IT department. I am a retired guy with no ties to any IT Department.

    This BSOD generally occurs after a wake up from standby or inactivity or when I open the lid on my laptop after being closed overnight. I can eliminate the BSOD at the start of the day by shutting down overnight. I have eliminated all 3rd party software in the startup sequence. I don't have issues while actively using the laptop.

    What will it take to get this issue elevated to development?

    Thanks

    While some people doubt that this error could cause things to crash, other software will sometimes encounter a significant performance lag when this error occurs. When that happens, the software sometimes crashes.

    So, not every time the error occurs, but often enough that it's annoying and at the very same time that the error occurs.

    (To be clear, in my case, the error is on line 128, not 178 or any others.)

    Unfortunately I have limited computer expertise. That being said; I snooped around and learned this was added to my system 10/16/2022. That’s about the time I updated from 21H2 to 22H2.

    I found onecoreuap when I did a search in Windows system32 directory looking for onecoreuap.

    When I click on properties; due to my limited knowledge and not understanding what I’m looking at, I noticed when I clicked on “Details” at the bottom it displays “Remove Properties and Personal Information”. Needless to say I didn’t click on it since I don’t know the consequences.

    I don’t know if this information is of any value or means anything. Possibly someone more knowledgeable can sort it out.
