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.

    I think I'll take your advice and wait for MS to recognize the bug and fix it.

    I have an act! CRM system that is not reporting errors but crashing, freezing and behaving not as it should and the only thing that is reporting errors is autopilot.dll

    Restoring to an earlier date following a clean restore has not worked as Up-date for Windows 11 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5022845) is installed.

    Alot of talk herein about "cache clearing". In investigation I found a cleanup tool called Restro. Sounds great and reported a load of error including regedits on my Windows 11 OS (Dell Inspiron). It comes at a cost and all literature is in German. Thoughts or experience?

    what do i do if i deleted the cash from windows update??

    Hi Bethany Davis1:

    Do you mean that you cleared your Windows Update cache using one of the methods described in the Oct 2022 MakeUseOf article How to Delete Old Windows Update Files? Clearing your Windows Update cache should not create any problems if done correctly, but you will likely notice that your past Windows Update history (e.g., at Settings | Update and Security | Windows Update | View Update History on a Win 10 OS) will be purged.

    What is your Windows operating system, and why did you clear your Windows Update cache? Did someone suggest that this would fix the ModernDeployment-Diagnostics-Provider / Autopilot.dll WIL errors being discussed in this thread?

    Dell Inspiron 5584 * 64-bit Win 10 Pro v22H2 build 19045.2486 * Firefox v110.0.0 * Microsoft Defender v4.18.2301.6-1.1.200000.2 * Malwarebytes Premium v4.5.22.236-1.0.1915 * Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.7279 * Microsoft Office Home and Business 2019 (Version 2301 / Build 16026.20146) Click-to-Run
