I tracked it down to one missing file, apex. it's listed in filelist.txt but not in the archive. i got this machine yesterday, so that's when i installed the latest 7-zip. it doesn't show the file. just to be safe, in WSL i ran apt install xarchiver and used that program to extract the archive. both don't have the apex file, both do show this suspicious garbage file in the root of the .7z:

WSA_2407.40000.4.0_arm64} 976,400 b

edit: just downloaded an older build, turns out apex is probably just an empty directory that is now being omitted from some build process. so...just remove the entry from the file list? don't know if there are other ramifications about that directory.

but things still don't work after doing that, so wonder if something is broken with surface 11.

Thanks, mkdir apex fixed it for me.
