kali.exe returns WslRegisterDistribution failed with error: 0x80070005

[Fagbemi-Jeremiah]

Sorry about the long explanation, i just want to know where i went wrong
i wanted to download kali on windows but microsoft store had some major bugs and after so many times of running different commands and doing others stuff i decide to go to https://store.rg-adguard.net/ which allowed me to download kali without using Microsoft store after i downloaded it from the site i tried to run the .Appxbundle but the install button turned grey and didn't do anything, so i cancelled it a typed Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Users\user\Downloads\KaliLinux.54290C8133FEE_1.5.0.0_neutral_~_ey8k8hqnwqnmg.AppxBundle" in powershell(Adminstrator) and then it installed but now there is a new problem, if i open the app from start menu, it waits for some time the it brings a popup saying The operation returned becuase the timeout period expired, then if i open kali.exe from "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\KaliLinux.54290C8133FEE_1.5.0.0_x64__ey8k8hqnwqnmg" it opens cmd and shows

Installing, this may take a few minutes...
WslRegisterDistribution failed with error: 0x80070005
Error: 0x80070005 Access is denied.

Press any key to continue...

And after pressing any key it closes the window, an if i open cmd and type kali it returns The system cannot execute the specified program. , i have checked every where but nothing seems to be helping

I don't think that method is officially supported. Uninstall the App and try again with the Windows Server way.

@onomatopellan i have done that and it didn't fix anything, i have also restarted Lxssmanager service, i don't think my method is wrong as it is directly equivalent to downloading from store
