LOL OOPS wrong bug

This shouldn't require elevated rights, but it sounds like your app package catalog is horked. Can you follow the troubleshooting steps linked from that link?

I know this is closed, but in case others run into this. I was getting this error trying to double click the msix installer. If I run 'add-appxpackager -path filename.msix' it did install Windows Terminal. Oh yea, add-appxpackager worked in PowerShell 5.1 - NOT PowerShell 7.

@dweddig01 Thanks for this information. It saved me.

Note that there is a typo in the line. Should be:

add-appxpackage -path path\to\file.msixbundle

(Delete stray "r" and add "bundle" to the end of extension, at least for me.)
