Stefan Georgiev Please provide support or example of using PowerShell. My quick dirty test failed, no error, just a GUID folder in the msixmgr\x64 path. I want to loop through all my MSIX pacakges.

$MSIXMGR = "C:\msixmgr\x64"
$MSIXPath = "C:\MSIX1"
$CimFS = "C:\CimFS"
$PackageName = "NotepadPlusPlus_7.9.1.0_x64"
If (!(Test-Path -Path $CimFS\$PackageName)) {New-Item -ItemType directory -Path $CimFS\$PackageName | Out-Null}
CD $MSIXMGR
.\msixmgr.exe -Unpack -packagePath "$MSIXPath\$PackageName.msix" -destination "$CimFS\$PackageName\$PackageName.cim" -applyacls -create -vhdSize 200 -filetype "cim" -rootDirectory apps
I pretty much ran your script with my variables and worked as expected. I started my PowerShell in admin mode that is required since MSIXMGR needs to manipulate drive.
$MSIXMGR = "C:\Users\ssa\Downloads\msixmgr\x64"
$MSIXPath = "C:\Users\ssa\Desktop\"
$CimFS = "C:\temp\date"
$PackageName = "GPUZ_1.0.1.0_x64__74vyvr5aw93s6"
If (!(Test-Path -Path $CimFS\$PackageName)) {New-Item -ItemType directory -Path $CimFS\$PackageName | Out-Null }
CD $MSIXMGR
.\msixmgr.exe -Unpack -packagePath "$MSIXPath\$PackageName.msix" -destination "$CimFS\$PackageName\$PackageName.cim" -applyacls -create -vhdSize 200 -filetype "cim" -rootDirectory apps
$MSIXMGR = "C:\Users\ssa\Downloads\msixmgr\x64"
