Troubleshooting installation issues

The installation process for Files relies on appinstaller and msix. While the installation process usually works as expected, it occasionally fails so we put together a list of issues and solutions.

This issue can usually be by restarting Windows and running the appinstaller again.

There aren’t any known solution for this issue.

Windows can’t open this type of file (.appinstaller)

This occurs when the appinstaller component is missing from Windows and can be resolved by running the Store reset command wsreset -i in PowerShell or Command Prompt.
