Correct answer & explanation
✓
Upload the hardware hashes to the Autopilot devices page in the Microsoft Intune admin center
Uploading the hardware hashes to the Autopilot devices page in the Microsoft Intune admin center is the standard method to register devices for Windows Autopilot. Option A is incorrect because the Microsoft Store for Business is deprecated and no longer supports Autopilot registration. Option B is incorrect because while OEMs can register devices, you already have the hardware hashes, making direct upload more efficient. Option C is incorrect because Windows Configuration Designer is used to create provisioning packages for manual setup, not for Autopilot device registration.
