Today, we are thrilled to announce the general availability of Windows Autopilot for HoloLens 2! IT administrators around the world can now use Microsoft Endpoint Manager to efficiently set up their fleet of HoloLens 2 devices and effectively deploy them to their production environments.

Traditionally, IT pros spend significant hands-on time configuring and setting up devices that will later be used by end users. With Windows Autopilot for HoloLens, we are simplifying this process. IT admins can pre-configure devices with a few simple operations, and end users can set-up the devices with little to no interaction by connecting to a network and verifying credentials.



Everything beyond that is automated.

Thanks to the valuable feedback you provide during the preview period, we have made continued improvements—to Windows Autopilot self-deploying mode in particular. With self-deploying mode, you can easily:

• Join a device to Azure Active Directory (Azure AD).
• Enroll the device in MDM using Azure AD automatic enrollment.
• Provision policies, applications, certificates, and networking profiles.
• Use the Enrollment Status Page (ESP) to prevent access to corporate resources until a device is fully provisioned.

Set up Windows Autopilot for HoloLens in 6 simple steps

Setting up your environment to support HoloLens deployment with Windows Autopilot is straightforward. Simply:

1. Enable Automatic MDM Enrollment.
2. Register devices in Windows Autopilot.
3. Create a device group.
4. Create a deployment profile.
5. Verify the ESP configuration.
6. Verify the profile status of the HoloLens device(s).
