ERROR_INSTALL_FAILED
ERROR_INSTALL_FAILED is a general AppX or MSIX deployment failure. It is not a root cause: the deployment Activity ID log normally contains an earlier, more specific error.
Do not diagnose this code in isolation. Start with the first error in the AppX deployment log and then verify the package, dependencies, trust, and target device requirements that it identifies.
What to check
- Get the Activity ID from the failed command or Event Viewer and inspect it with
Get-AppxLog. - Check the AppXDeployment-Server and AppxPackagingOM log entries for inner HRESULTs.
- Keep the original package and log together so the failure can be reproduced or escalated to the package publisher.
