}Refer to the exhibit. You have assigned the above Enrollment Status Page (ESP) policy to a Windows Autopilot deployment. A user reports that the provisioning process hangs on 'Installing apps' and never completes. What is the most likely cause?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many candidates assume the ESP hangs due to a network issue or user error, but Microsoft explicitly designs the ESP to block on required app failures, making this the primary troubleshooting focus for 'Installing apps' hangs.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
One of the required apps failed to install.
The Enrollment Status Page (ESP) policy tracks the installation of required apps during Autopilot provisioning. If a required app fails to install, the ESP will hang on 'Installing apps' indefinitely because it waits for all required apps to succeed before proceeding. This is the most common cause of a stuck ESP at the app phase.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
The ESP policy is configured to track progress for Autopilot only, but the device is not using Autopilot.
Why it's wrong here
The policy is for Autopilot; if the device is using Autopilot, this is fine.
- ✓
One of the required apps failed to install.
Why this is correct
The ESP waits for app installation, and if it fails without reset, it hangs.
- ✗
The user attempted to retry the setup and it was blocked.
Why it's wrong here
Blocking retry would not cause a hang; it would fail.
- ✗
The device reset on failure is enabled, causing a reset loop.
Why it's wrong here
Reset on failure is disabled, so no reset occurs.
