Environment

Windows build number: [run `[Environment]::OSVersion` for powershell, or `ver` for cmd] Windows Server 10.0.20251.1000
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): N\A

Any other software?

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open elevated Powersell
    Downloaded provided package zip, unblocked and expanded to C:\WT
    Run Add-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online -FolderPath C:\WT
    Add-AppxProvisionedPackage : No applicable main package was found for this platform.
    The directory must contain an applicable package with a .main file extension. For more information, see the help.
    Same result when specifying the msixbunde file with -PackagePath and the license file with -License.
    Using -FolderPath also doesn't work on W10 20H2, but specifying the files specifically does

Expected behavior

Actual behavior

Installs WT for all users should work on Windows Server vNext?
