It will help if you specify the version of MatLab,, as well as any tooling used to repackage the application.

In particular the 2021.1105 Microsoft MSIX Packaging Tool has issues that has caused similar symptoms; the new 2022.110 build seems much better.

The MATLAB version we are trying to package is R2021b and the MSIX packaging tool that we used is of the build 2022.110. I am still getting the below error while installation:
"App installation failed with error message: Writing to file VFS\ProgramFilesX64\MATLAB\R2021b\toolbox\systemcomposer\allocation\editor\web\release\images\collapse_down-hover-25665c1733f2d57001b322eeb498d82b.png at offset 0x0 of size 0xF6 failed. (0x800705aa)"

Since there is no log file for MSIX installation i have checked the event viewer but could not find any reason as there is no failure details shown there and only the above message is present. What could be the possible reason for this and how can i resolve it.

  The place to look for errors when installing an MSIX package is in Event Viewer. "Applications and Services Logs\Microsoft\Windows" has three folders starting with AppX. You'll probably find more detail there.

    I have checked in all the folders present under Event viewer starting with APPX but there are no further details apart from the error message:
    "App installation failed with error message: Writing to file VFS\ProgramFilesX64\MATLAB\R2021b\ui\install\supportsoftwareclient\dojox\layout\resources\icons\splitterToggleV.png at offset 0x0 of size 0x11F failed. (0x800705aa)"
