Windows 11 24H2 | The file cannot be accessed by the system

[Sapedails]

Describe the bug

When trying to install an application from the Windows Toolbox in the Winutil menu, I encounter an error related to insufficient permissions, despite running PowerShell with administrative privileges. The installation process fails with the error message: "The file cannot be accessed by the system."
Steps to reproduce

Open PowerShell with Administrator rights.
Navigate to Winutil in the Chris Titus Tech Windows Toolbox.
Select and attempt to install a package.
See the error: "The file cannot be accessed by the system."

Expected behavior

The installation should proceed successfully without errors, and the selected application should be installed correctly, assuming the necessary permissions are granted.
Screenshots

No screenshots available at this time, but the error message appears as:

Error: This command cannot be run due to the error: The file cannot be accessed by the system.
Additional context

I have checked that PowerShell is running as Administrator with full permissions.
The Execution Policy is set to RemoteSigned.
The issue seems to be related to either a permission issue or a conflict with system access to the installation files.

The WinGet tool appears to be installed correctly based on the logs, but still fails to run due to permission issues.

I reinstalled windows and it's fixed for me @Sapedails

[Sapedails]

Okay. The problem is "solved", but it is not definitively solved. I don't think reinstalling Windows is the right solution to the problem."

Reinstall winget is also an option in the winutil try that @Sapedails
