HP Recommended
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

Hi I am try to get the Hardware Hash for my HP probook 430 G8 and I am trying to use the Get-WindowsAutoPilotInfo script, the script works with all other laptops and Virtual machines but for some reason fails for the HP Probook

The execution policy is allowed and the script is run as an administrator.

 

I am getting the error
