I haven't got any errors for autopilot since disabling the service. I haven't been playing any games but my pc is much more stable and even my Temps are lower. Who would have thought...
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?

2023-01-22T15:45:41+00:00 Yea, I noticed while playing Warhammer 3 that sometimes my PC would just hard freeze and just restart itself. I would note the time on my phone and then when I checked my event viewer there it was, error spam from autopilot. I also noticed other random instability issues on my PC, which are just freaking odd. I had something like 200+ errors from an entire day most all of them are autopilot.
At first I thought maybe it was a bad PSU, or software issues. I updated all my drivers, updated my windows, and even monitored my voltages etc. Nothing seemed to work. I have since disabled the service and seeing if it helps anything. It's just super odd...

2023-01-15T13:40:59+00:00 I tried a full in place upgrade on recommendation from a chst with Microsoft tech. As soon as it finished and I opened Windows it froze with multiple instances of the error messages in event viewer. So it does not appear to be accumulated corruption - but an inherent problem. Waiting for a future update with this noted repair appears to be only recourse.
