Solved exactly the same error by installing it NOT as admin.
Hi there, I’m having this issue too on a corporate laptop : I’ve tried with and elevated ps prompt (wich use a different account because users haven’t administrators rights) with no luck. The same without admin rights … At last, i tried while logged on with an administrator account and the installation complete successfully.
Another way is to locate file and manually install it :
dism.exe /online /Add-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackagePath:"C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\microsoft-windows-terminal\tools\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_1.0.1401.0_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msixbundle" /SkipLicenseWIN+R and wt
i’m also having this issue with the same error log. p.s. this is also corporate laptop
