Install Error - Fail to detect Microsoft.UI.Xaml dependency

[vmabille-intel]

Brief description of your issue

I'm not able to install winget 1.3.1391-preview from the CLI because it fails to detect the framework "Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.7" while Microsoft.UI.Xaml (version 2.7.0) is properly installed.

Installing winget from the Microsoft Store is not an option since I am preparing virtualbox images with Microsoft applications for an automated testing environment.

Steps to reproduce

Script used for installing Winget:

# Install NuGet
Install-Module PowerShellGet -Force
Register-PackageSource -provider NuGet -name nugetRepository -location https://www.nuget.org/api/v2

# Install Microsoft.UI.Xaml 
Install-Package Microsoft.UI.Xaml -RequiredVersion 2.7 -Force

# Install VC Libs
$vcLibsInstaller = "C:\tmp\Microsoft.VCLibs.x64.14.00.Desktop.appx"
(new-object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadFile("https://aka.ms/Microsoft.VCLibs.x64.14.00.Desktop.appx", $vcLibsInstaller)
add-appxpackage $vcLibsInstaller

$wingetInstaller = "C:\tmp\Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msixbundle"
(new-object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadFile("https://github.com/microsoft/winget-cli/releases/download/v1.3.1391-preview/Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msixbundle", $wingetInstaller)
add-appxpackage $wingetInstaller

Expected behavior

winget 1.3.1391-preview to install.

Actual behavior

add-appxpackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073CF3, Package failed updates, dependency or conflict validation.
Windows cannot install package Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_1.18.1391.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe because this package depends on a framework that could not be found. Provide the framework "Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.7" published by "CN=Microsoft

Microsoft.UI.Xaml on its side was properly installed:

PS C:\tmp> Get-Package

Name                           Version          Source                           ProviderName

Microsoft.UI.Xaml              2.7.1            C:\Program Files\PackageManag... NuGet

Environment

Vagrant box based on image: gusztavvargadr/windows-10

It must not be properly installed, because PowerShell is not detecting it -

The frameworks with name "Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.7"
currently installed are: {}

If you try running (Get-AppxPackage).where({$_.name -match 'Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.7'}) it should show nothing, since PowerShell can't find the package.

I suggest trying the advice from this comment and extracting the Appx from the NuGet package, then using Add-AppxPackage from PowerShell to install the Appx for Microsoft.UI.Xaml.2.7
