Unable to Add-AppxProvisionedPackage as System since 1.7.11132
Brief description of your issue
Until now, I have been using a W32 app in Intune to install Winget as a nt/system. As of release 1.7.11132, this is no longer working. I also tried using the latest pre-release and saw the same issue. I see this same issue when running as a local administrator as well.
Steps to reproduce
- Download latest msixbundle: https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/releases/tag/v1.7.11132
- As nt/system or local administrator run
Add-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online -PackagePath "$InstallerFolder\Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msixbundle" -SkipLicense
Expected behavior
AppxPackage provisions without error. I attached appx and dism logs below. I am seeing an error regarding: Opening the package from location Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.8_8.2310.30001.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe failed.
Actual behavior
Get the following error: `Exception : Type : System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException ErrorCode : -2147024893 TargetSite : Name : ThrowTerminatingError DeclaringType : [System.Management.Automation.MshCommandRuntime] MemberType : Method Module : System.Management.Automation.dll Message : Unspecified error

Hi, as a workaround could you manually download and install Xaml?

Hi, as a workaround could you manually download and install Xaml?
I encountered this issue as well, thankfully my case was a single device and after receiving the same error as a script and running the cmdlet manually, I was able to get this to work around using the nuget package as a zip and installing as an appx package contained inside the zip manually. https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/package/Microsoft.UI.Xaml/2.8.6 for the file used.
