I tried installing the latest release and got this error message when installing

PS C:\Users\u\Downloads\Arch> .\arch.exe
Installing...
ERROR:Installation Failed!
HRESULT:0x0
Press any key to continue...

However running arch.exe results in a working shell and uname -a gives the following output:

PS C:\Users\u\Downloads\Arch> .\arch.exe run uname -a
Linux XPS15 4.4.0-17134-Microsoft #81-Microsoft Sun May 20 01:14:00 PST 2018 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I think this error is not the same.
0x80007005 is unknown error.

please try these:

  1. reboot computer (Windows 1803's WSL Service is unstable)
  2. run wslconfig /u Arch command for full uninstall instance.
  3. run in eleveted-shell.

Seems it was a permission issue.
wslconfig /l /all did not list the old installation

Running from an elevated promt or moving it into the home folder worked.

Yes,that HRESULT is E_ACCESSDENIED.
UNKNOWN is 0x80004005.
I was misunderstanding.
