Steps to reproduce

When I install PowerShell via the msixbundle, various commands (like Get-AppxProvisionedPackage, Get-WindowsOptionalFeature) do not work. After entering one of the commands it takes some time and then I only get the message "class not registered".

I tried the following commands to install the msixbundle:

Add-ProvisionedAppxPackage -Online -PackagePath "C:\PowerShell-7.2.6-win.msixbundle" -SkipLicense;

or

Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\PowerShell-7.2.6-win.msixbundle";

Expected behavior

PS C:\Windows\System32> Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online

Following up with Appx team to see what they may have changed in their module as this was working
