Oh and, I installed it through Choco for now and it initially failed. I was then able to fix that with issue 600. I was using the CLI, but they do the same thing at the end of the day.

But that's not what the issue is about, it's that the msix bundle fails to install.

@ANF-Studios The msix installer doesn't include the dependencies, can you try using the app installer here?

Alright, so at first sight, I saw what you'd expect: Now, when I pressed update (since, as mentioned earlier, I already had it installed):

Now, I've been having this controversy that it succeeded because I already had it installed. But, there's that, it installed successfully.

@ANF-Studios Can you confirm that Files is launching successfully?

[ANF-Studios]

It does launch correctly and everything is working as expected.
