Greetings,
I recently encountered an issue with Event ID 131 errors in the event log indicating that the Metadata staging failed during my PC's startup. After conducting some research on Google, I discovered that the data is fetched from a specific link in the registry:
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Device Metadata
-DeviceMetadataServiceURL.
I tested this on both the Windows 11 beta and Canary builds, which directed me to http://dmd.metaservices.microsoft.com/metadata.svc via the link http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=252669&clcid=0x409. However, I encountered a 502 Bad Gateway error when attempting to access this web address through three different ISPs, suggesting a potential issue on Microsoft's end.
I have reported this problem on the Microsoft Feedback Hub under "The Windows Insider Program." If you are also experiencing this issue, please provide additional details here. Your input is appreciated. Thank you.
