Microsoft advises users to disregard certificate enrollment errors for improved SEO.
Microsoft has recently advised customers to disregard incorrect CertificateServicesClient (CertEnroll) errors that may appear after installing the July 2025 preview update and subsequent Windows 11 24H2 updates. In recent months, the company has addressed several similar issues affecting various Windows features, which triggered erroneous warnings without any actual impact. For example, last month, Microsoft recommended that users ignore Windows Firewall configuration errors that occurred after rebooting their computers following the installation of the June 2025 preview update. Additionally, in April, the company confirmed and resolved a known issue that caused invalid 0x80070643 failure errors after installing the April 2025 Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) updates, as well as a bug that triggered incorrect BitLocker drive encryption errors on Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices.
On Monday, Microsoft updated the Windows release health dashboard, urging users to ignore another error event logged in Event Viewer with Error ID 57, which indicated that “The ‘Microsoft Pluton Cryptographic Provider’ provider was not loaded because initialisation failed.” The company clarified that following the installation of the July 2025 Windows non-security preview update (KB5062660) and later updates, users may see an error related to CertificateServicesClient (CertEnroll) that can be safely ignored. Microsoft emphasised that although this event is logged in Event Viewer every time the device is restarted, it does not indicate an issue with any active Windows component. This known issue stems from a feature still under development and not yet fully integrated into the operating system. As with previous errors, Microsoft reassured users that these issues have no impact on Windows processes and that no action is required to prevent or resolve them.
