ClientIDManagerstartup.log Error:0x80071771

ISSUE

I had to uninstall and reinstall the SCCM client on a server and it will not register with the management point. The ClientIDManagerStartup.log just has this error over and over:

GetRegistrationState failed (0x80071771)
RegTask: Failed to get registration state. Error: 0x80071771

I can't find anything on the Internet about error 0x80071771 except that it means a file could not be decrypted.

The MP_RegistrationManager.log and the MP_CliReg logs on the site server show no errors at all.

Resolution

Please try Below Step.

1-Uninstall/reinstall the sccm client

2-Stop the SMS Agent Host service

3-Delete any devices in the SCCM console that have the same name as the offending machine

4-On the computer that won't register, delete C:\Windows\SMSCFG.INI

5-Start the SMS Agent Host service

6- Excluding Antivirus SMSCFG.INI file and SMS Agent Host Service
