[BUG] Unable to install "AppExecutionAlias directory missing"
Describe the bug
Hello, trying this for the first time. So it's a fresh install following the video guide as an example. After I sign into Google Play, the window closes and nothing else happens.
Steps to reproduce the issue
- Run Run.bat
- Two Powershell windows opens. Two WSA Loading windows opens.
- WSA windows close. Google Play window opens and asks me to sign in.
- I signed in successfully. Google Play window closes.
- Nothing else happens.
Attempted Run.bat again, no changes. Rebooted my PC, attempt again, no changes.
I read a few threads here, noticed you always suggested to run these commands to get the logs: (E:\ drive is NTFS as well)

Additional context
I appreciate the assistance :)
Does Google Play open when attempting to reopen after crashing?
Where's the binary to reopen Google Play? Sorry, it's not immediately obvious to me what to run after Run.bat finishes.
Never figured this out. I assume the Google Play executable was supposed to be in Program Files or in my Start Menu but I never found it. I don't really have a need for this anymore either.
Closing issue.
