Hello guys i would like to know how can i remove Autopilot Component completely from Windows 11 25H2 ISO. It seems it is locked because of the OOBE but even after pretty much completing OOBE from Unattended category it still doesn't let me uncheck this. I am also using the Home version image because i want to make sure this is completely remove from my gaming PC (i know people say it only works on Pro and Ent versions but it seems to me it also applies configurations on home for some reason). Can someone please explain to me step by step what i need to do?
 
Autopilot is deeply integrated into the OOBE workflow, as it tries to confirm if your PC's HW ID has been registered under someone's Autopilot domain for automated provisioning, and also checks for pending Windows updates.

You have two options:
1. Leave the Autopilot component in the image, and remove it afterwards from a live system. AP is only used during OOBE, and has no background services. It will not affect your gaming performance, and takes up virtually no disk space.

2. Remove Autopilot, and disconnect or disable the network when OOBE begins. To remove the component, click on the Compatibility button under the Components toolbar, and uncheck Windows Setup and Deployment / Out-of-box Experience (OOBE).

Enabling unattended mode will not stop Autopilot from running, it's a separate provisioning feature that happens to work during OOBE.
 
Thank you very much for the fast answer. I don't want to leave it on anything anymore and while you might think it doesn't hurt performance trust me, in my case it's exactly what this does. I am on home edition and i still see this User Device Registration and Modern Deployment even though i haven't logged in or anything. The moment i've hit the update button performance died within 20-30 mins of gaming. It seems my PC falsely enrolls into whatever this is and executes some scripts from "C:\Windows\Provisioning\Packages" which in turn messes up with the WMI and totally destroys my performance completely. I don't even understand why this works in Home edition. I will try step number 2 with a W11Home iso and let you know what's up.

I've seen AMD Ryzen chipset driver installers configure the high performance power plans, by rolling out a Provisioning Package. If that's the case, it's entirely unrelated to Autopilot.
 
Hello again I have been testing a few versions and I found out that even removing Autopilot it still manages to screw up my performance using some .ppkg packages. Is there any way I can completely remove support for these too? Oh and I have Intel... I was actually thinking of changing my HWID if that is possible with NTLite and no, I do not have any game bans or anything I'm just starting to think it's the best option to avoid this issue completely. I'm not even sure why it's happening but I'm really done with having bad performance for no reason.
 
Intel PPM does the exact same thing, deploying a custom CPU power plan by using a .ppkg file. If you don't want the PPKG, then don't install the power management drivers.
 
garlin Ok i understand, where do i uncheck these power management drivers? The weird thing is that when i install Intel Chipset power options do not change but after i install NVidia driver the option to ¨Put the computer to sleep¨ appears. Is there any way i can just change the hardware id and start fresh? It seems like a lot of stuff to do for something that should just work.
 
You're not explaining the problem clearly. Are you installing the Intel CPU drivers from a setup program, or is Windows Updates installing an Intel CPU driver for you automatically?

Why do you keep asking about changing the HW ID? You cannot change the HW ID, unless you change the installed HW.
