Enable local Windows Autopilot Reset

To enable a local Windows Autopilot Reset, the DisableAutomaticReDeploymentCredentials policy must be configured. This policy is documented in the Policy CSP. By default, local Windows Autopilot Reset is disabled. This default ensures that a local Autopilot Reset isn't accidentally triggered.

Workflow

The following steps are required to enable and trigger local Windows Autopilot Reset:

  1. Create a configuration profile in Intune that enables local Windows Autopilot Reset.
  2. Make sure WinRE is installed on device where Windows Autopilot Reset is triggered.
  3. Trigger Windows Autopilot Reset locally on device with an account that has local administrator privileges.
