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?

    The Feedback Hub is absolutely just for feedback of problems up to Microsoft. It's not a troubleshooting or help forum. It's just a way to get problem reports "officially" to them:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/send-feedback-to-microsoft-with-the-feedback-hub-app-f59187f8-8739-22d6-ba93-f66612949332

    Of course, they almost never act on anything reported there. Just look at the issues people are reporting on the Taskbar (filter Category to Desktop Environment and then Subcategory to Taskbar). The top Trending problem is about their having removed the ability to "never combine" taskbar icons. It's been there for over a year with almost 17,000 upvotes and 1886 comments. Yet, not only have they never fixed the issue, they've never officially responded to it.

    Feedback hub sucks, can't get in, then can't find anything once you are in! Looks like it is more for feed back on OS rather than troubleshooting. Can't find anything you posted

    I have not received anything from Feedback hub as well. To get rid of this error I ended up doing a clean install. Some, like me, tried to fix it on our own only to end up having to take the same route.

    Too many people facing this issue.

    Feedback is just a useless piece of s... I tried it several times, never received a reply or anything changed. I don't know why MS is throwing money at this "Feedback".
