I'm trying to side-load an appxbundle (Lenovo Vantage) which fails. The appxbundle has multiple dependencies of which one is causing an issue.
The command used to side-load is:
dism.exe /Online /Add-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackagePath:"Lenovo Vantage\33880b99e2af47f89fd9c3419314052e.appxbundle" /LicensePath:"Lenovo Vantage\33880b99e2af47f89fd9c3419314052e_License1.xml" /DependencyPackagePath:"Lenovo Vantage\Microsoft.NET.Native.Framework.1.7_1.7.27413.0_x86__8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx" /DependencyPackagePath:"Lenovo Vantage\Microsoft.NET.Native.Runtime.1.7_1.7.25531.0_x86__8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx" /DependencyPackagePath:"Lenovo Vantage\Microsoft.Services.Store.Engagement_10.0.19011.0_x86__8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx" /DependencyPackagePath:"Lenovo Vantage\Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00_14.0.26706.0_x86__8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx"
The returned error message is
2019-08-31 15:37:27, Error DISM DISM Appx Provider: PID=9864 TID=7564 Failed to get installed location of package 'Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00_14.0.26706.0_x86__8wekyb3d8bbwe' because it's not staged - CPackageAdapter::DetermineInstalledLocationOnline(hr:0x80004005)
2019-08-31 15:37:27, Error DISM DISM Appx Provider: PID=9864 TID=7564 Failed to determine installed location for package 'E046963F.LenovoCompanion_4.27.32.0_neutral_~_k1h2ywk1493x8' and its dependencies - CPackageAdapter::RegisterStagedPackageOnline(hr:0x80004005)
Now I contacted Lenovo about it already, but they keep saying that the VCLibs appx package can't be installed as Local System. They're not referencing any official documentation, and my experience in system administration makes me quite suspicious about that statement.
