[Solved] How to enroll a Windows laptop to autopilot for beginners?

Using PowerShell:

The hardware hash for an existing device is available through Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), as long as that device is running a supported version of Windows. You can use a PowerShell script (Get-WindowsAutopilotInfo.ps1) to get a device's hardware hash and serial number. The serial number is useful for quickly seeing which device the hardware hash belongs to.

To use this script, you can use either of the following methods:

• Download the script file from the PowerShell Gallery and run it on each computer.
• Install the script directly from the PowerShell Gallery.

To install the script directly and capture the hardware hash from the local computer:

1. Use the following commands from an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt:

[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12
New-Item -Type Directory -Path "C:\HWID"
Set-Location -Path "C:\HWID"
$env:Path += ";C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Scripts"
Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
Install-Script -Name Get-WindowsAutopilotInfo
Get-WindowsAutopilotInfo -OutputFile AutopilotHWID.csv

1. You can run the commands remotely if both of the following are true:

   • WMI permissions are in place.
   • WMI is accessible through Windows Firewall on the remote computer.

2. While OOBE is running, you can start uploading the hardware hash by opening a command prompt (Shift+F10 at the sign-in prompt) and using the following commands:

[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12
PowerShell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass
Install-Script -name Get-WindowsAutopilotInfo -Force
Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
Get-WindowsAutopilotInfo -Online

1. You're prompted to sign in. An account with the Intune Administrator role is sufficient, and the device hash will then be uploaded automatically.

2. After you confirm the details of the uploaded device hash, run a sync in the Microsoft Intune admin center. Select Devices > Windows > Windows enrollment > Devices (under Windows Autopilot Deployment Program) > Sync.

3. After the device appears in your device list, and an Autopilot profile is assigned, restarting the device causes OOBE to run through the Windows Autopilot provisioning process.

   On first run, you're prompted to approve the required app registration permissions.
