|Where is the Windows Autopilot data stored? |Windows Autopilot data is stored in the United States (US), not in a sovereign cloud, even when the AAD tenant is registered in a sovereign cloud. This is applicable to all Windows Autopilot data, regardless of the portal leveraged to deploy Autopilot.|
|Why is Windows Autopilot data stored in the US and not in a sovereign cloud?|It is not customer data that we store, but business data which enables Microsoft to provide a service, therefore it is okay for the data to reside in the US. Customers can stop subscribing to the service any time, and, in that event, the business data is removed by Microsoft.|
|How many ways are there to register a device for Windows Autopilot|There are six ways to register a device, depending on who is doing the registering: <br><br>1. OEM Direct API (only available to TVOs) <br>2. MPC via the MPC API (must be a CSP) <br>3. MPC via manual upload of CSV file in the UI (must be a CSP) <br>4. MSfB via CSV file upload <br>5. Intune via CSV file upload <br>6. Microsoft 365 Business portal via CSV file upload|
|How many ways are there to create an Windows Autopilot profile?|There are four ways to create & assign an Windows Autopilot profile: <br><br>1. Through MPC (must be a CSP) <br>2. Through MSfB <br>3. Through Intune (or another MDM) <br>4. Microsoft 365 Business portal <br><br>Microsoft recommends creation and assignment of profiles through Intune. |
| What are some common causes of registration failures? |<br>1. Bad or missing Hardware hash entries can lead to faulty registration attempts <br>2. Hidden special characters in CSV files. <br><br>To avoid this issue, after creating your CSV file, open it in Notepad to look for hidden characters or trailing spaces or other corruptions.|
| Is Autopilot supported in all regions/countries? | <br>Autopilot only supports customers using public Azure. Public Azure does not include the three entities listed below:<br>- Azure Germany <br>- Azure China<br>- Azure Government<br>So, if a customer is set up in global Azure, there are no region restrictions. For example, if Contoso uses global Azure but has employees working in China, the Contoso employees working in China would be able to use Autopilot to deploy devices. If Contoso uses Azure China, the Contoso employees would not be able to use Autopilot.|
