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?

    Brand new HP desktop computer running Windows Home 11 v21H2 OS 22000.832

    Lots of continuing event viewer errors:

    Autopilot.dll WIL error was reported;

    Event ID: 1010;

    Source: Microsoft-Windows-ModernDeployment-Diagnostics-Provider

    Home computer. No need for "autopilot", additional "deployment" or "provisioning".

    I reported it to Feedback Hub.

    I just updated today and got this bug on my main PC, but interestingly not on my old Surface Tablet. Both are running Windows 10 BTW

    I have two identical Dell computers that were updated from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 11 Pro and then to "attempt" to fix a windows update issue I was told to reinstall Windows 11 Pro. On the computer that had Windows 11 Pro reinstalled is where I have the same issue that is described here. Both systems have been updated regularly. On the computer with the reinstall I have run SFC and DISM and the issue remains.

    This is the problem, this file does not exist in Windows home, hence the error. We have to wait for Microsoft to fix this in an update
