MD-101 Windows Autopilot Deployment 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: Which Azure AD join type allows devices to be managed by both on-premises Group Policy and Microsoft Intune?
- Azure AD joined
- Azure AD registered
- Hybrid Azure AD joined (Correct answer)
- Workplace joined
Correct answer: Hybrid Azure AD joined
Hybrid Azure AD joined devices are joined to on-premises AD and registered in Azure AD, enabling management by both Group Policy and Intune.
Question 2: What network requirement must be met for Windows Autopilot to function during OOBE?
- A domain controller must be reachable on the local network
- The device must have internet connectivity to reach Microsoft cloud services (Correct answer)
- A DHCP server with PXE options must be available
- An on-premises MDM server must be accessible
Correct answer: The device must have internet connectivity to reach Microsoft cloud services
Autopilot requires internet connectivity during OOBE to contact Microsoft Deployment Service and Azure AD for device registration and profile download.
Question 3: Which component of the Enrollment Status Page (ESP) tracks app installation progress during Autopilot?
- Device preparation phase
- Device setup phase — App installations section (Correct answer)
- Account setup phase
- Security baseline phase
Correct answer: Device setup phase — App installations section
The Device Setup phase of the ESP includes an App installations section that tracks required apps deployed via Intune during Autopilot.
Question 4: An Autopilot device fails with error 0x800705B4 during ESP. What does this typically indicate?
- The hardware hash was not uploaded correctly
- A timeout occurred while waiting for policies or apps to install (Correct answer)
- BitLocker failed to encrypt the drive
- The device is not licensed for Intune
Correct answer: A timeout occurred while waiting for policies or apps to install
Error 0x800705B4 indicates a timeout during the Enrollment Status Page, usually because an app or policy did not install within the allowed time.
Question 5: Which Autopilot profile setting prevents users from skipping the privacy settings page during OOBE?
- Skip AD connectivity check
- User account type = Standard
- Privacy settings = Hide (Correct answer)
- Convert all targeted devices to Autopilot = Yes
Correct answer: Privacy settings = Hide
Setting Privacy settings to Hide in the Autopilot profile suppresses the privacy settings screen during OOBE, enforcing a consistent setup experience.
Question 6: What is the purpose of assigning a device to a user in Windows Autopilot?
- To license the device for Windows Enterprise
- To pre-assign user credentials so no login is required
- To associate a primary user with the device for a pre-assigned user experience during OOBE (Correct answer)
- To enable co-management with Configuration Manager
Correct answer: To associate a primary user with the device for a pre-assigned user experience during OOBE
Pre-assigning a user to an Autopilot device populates the sign-in page with the user's email during OOBE, reducing steps for the end user.
