Intune is a great tool to help you manage your Windows devices. However, if you're new to Intune, there is one big mistake you should avoid when setting up Windows Autopilot. Here's what not to do:

First, don't try to set up Windows Autopilot on a device that already has an existing Windows installation. Autopilot is designed to be used for new devices that are out of the box and have never had Windows installed on them. If you try to use Autopilot on a device that has an existing Windows installation, it won't work properly.

Next, make sure you have the right Windows edition. Autopilot only works on certain Windows editions, such as Windows 10 Pro or Windows 10 Enterprise. If you try to use Autopilot with an unsupported Windows edition, it won't work.

Finally, be sure to always use the latest version of Windows Autopilot. If you're using an older version of Autopilot, it won't work properly and you won't be able to take advantage of the newest features.

By following these tips, you can avoid making the mistake of using Windows Autopilot incorrectly. Intune is an excellent tool for managing Windows devices, and Windows Autopilot makes it even easier to get your devices up and running quickly and securely.
