Autopilot setup process


Autopilot is a collection of cloud-based technologies which leverages Microsoft Intune to automate the set up and pre-configuration of new Windows devices, getting them ready for productive use without the need for the device on-premises or touched by IT. You can also use Windows Autopilot to reset, repurpose and recover Windows devices. To do so, you may need to return the device to the initial installation state of Windows if it wasn't previously setup with Autopilot.
