dism /online /disable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /Remove

dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /all /norestart
restart
wsl --install

Expected Behavior

I originally had a normally functioning WSL environment with Ubuntu as the operating system. However, after I upgraded to the latest Windows Insider Preview (I have been on this channel for a while without any issues), WSL failed to start, indicating that I needed to reinstall it (providing an MSI file for WSL2). But the installation encountered an error (even when the required MSI file was provided). So, I used the command wsl --uninstall to remove the WSL component, disabled the Linux subsystem feature, and restarted. After re-enabling the Linux subsystem and virtual machine feature components, and another restart, the installation using the command wsl --install failed again. The issue is reproducible. The logs from the reproduction process are in the attachment.

@pmartincic: Looks like this user is hitting the MSIX install issue. This would be a good test for the installer fixes you're working on.
