18362.145 Autopilot pre-provisioning fails for non-English builds. KB4497935
18362.207 BitLocker policies not enforced during Autopilot for nondefault encryption options. KB4501375
18362.267 - Windows Autopilot pre-provisioning doesn't work for a non-English OS and you see a red screen that says "Success."
- Windows Autopilot reports an AUTOPILOTUPDATE error during OOBE after sysprep, reset, or other variations. This issue typically happens if you reset the OS or used a custom sysprepped image.
- BitLocker encryption isn't correctly configured. Ex: BitLocker didn't get an expected notification after policies were applied to begin encryption.
- You're unable to install UWP apps from the Microsoft Store, causing failures during Windows Autopilot. If you're deploying Company Portal as a blocking app during Windows Autopilot ESP, you have probably seen this error.
- A user isn't granted administrator rights in the Windows Autopilot user-driven Microsoft Entra hybrid join scenario. This issue is another non-English OS issue.
KB4505903
18362.329 - The Windows Autopilot for existing devices feature doesn't properly suppress the Activities page during OOBE. Because of this issue, you see this extra page during OOBE.
- Sysprep /generalize doesn't clear TPM attestation state, which causes TPM attestation failure during later OOBE flow. (This issue isn't a common one, but you could run into it while testing. For example, if you run sysprep /generalize and then reboot or reimage the device to go back through an Autopilot pre-provisioning or self-deploying scenario.)
- TPM attestation may fail if the device has a valid AIK cert but no EK cert (this issue is related to the previous item).
- If TPM attestation fails during the Windows Autopilot pre-provisioning process, the landing page appears to stop responding. (Basically, the pre-provisioning landing page, where you select "Provision" to start the pre-provisioning process, isn't reporting errors properly).
- TPM attestation fails on newer Infineon TPMs (firmware version > 7.69). (Before this fix, only a specific list of firmware versions was accepted).
- Device naming templates may truncate the computer name at 14 characters instead of 15.
- Assigned Access policies cause a reboot, which can interfere with the configuration of single-app kiosk devices.
KB4512941
18362.387 A missing AKI extension in EK certificate caused TPM attestation to fail on Windows 10 version 1903. This issue was due to an extra validation added in Windows 10 version 1903 to check that the TPM EK certs had the proper attributes according to the TCG specifications. The KB4517211 update removes this validation. KB4517211
18362.449 On self-deploying scenarios, the device is no longer Microsoft Entra joined after OOBE and can't sign-in with Microsoft Entra credentials or access company resources. KB4522355
18362.693, 18363.693 For pre-provisioning scenarios, ESP is marked as required to show to ensure the technician flow completes successfully. KB4535996
18362.752, 18363.752 - For hybrid scenarios where the user should be an administrator, the user is forced to sign out at the end of ESP. This behavior makes sure that the user is part of the local Administrators group the next time they sign in.
- Improves the timeout algorithm on ESP to use processor ticks instead of the system time, which can drift if the device hasn't been powered on after a long duration.
KB4541335
18362.815, 18363.815 - Autopilot Reset state not set to success on completion, causing the Intune admin center to not show the correct status of the device after reset.
- Enable extra log collection useful for support cases and investigations.
KB4550945
18362.815, 18363.815, 19041.488 - ESP takes a long time during the "Identifying" phase, especially in hybrid and pre-provisioning scenarios.
- Autopilot Update disabled policy wasn't enforced during pre-provisioning scenarios.
- Device setup category fails in self-deploying and pre-provisioning scenarios when the ESP policy is set to disabled.
- Allows self-deploying and pre-provisioning scenarios to succeed even if multiple MDM providers are listed in Microsoft Entra ID.
- For self-deploying scenarios, a reboot causes the device to navigate to the pre-provisioning flow, even if the user didn't select the pre-provisioning flow.
KB4550945, KB4571744
18362.836, 18363.836 Devices with incompatible TPM versions (before v2.0), attestation times out instead of notifying the user of an incompatible hardware version. KB4556799
18362.1110, 18363.1110, 19041.488 Microphone icon always shows in OOBE even on devices without audio/voiceover support. KB4577062, KB4571744
18362.1237, 18363.1237, 19041.661, 19042.661 - The Privacy page isn't skipped during OOBE for some policy configurations.
- Fixes issues during ESP when multiple policy providers are registered (IME and co-management).
- For pre-provisioning scenarios, addresses an issue where the ESP seems to stop responding during Device Preparation category if a reboot occurs.
