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

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?

    In which parent directory is onecoreuap located? I can't find it on my C drive under Windows, Program Files, Program Files (x86), etc. I also checked for a hidden folders but came up empty. Please specify full path to the file we need to delete. Thanks.

    Boot windows in to safe mode and delete the following file

    dllmain.cpp

    from *onecoreuap\admin\moderndeployment\autopilot\dll* folder

    Restart windows.
