PsfTooling cannot be used when converting an AppV to MSIX.
Also, when manually installing the software and running PsfTooling, the error message is identical.

SAllzeit,
Offhand I'd guess the issue involves the app using the "short name" for a VFS folder. You're Json looks fine. App-V carried short names as part of the package, whereas MSIX does not. Still, I expected the short name to work for you here.
Short Names are on my (very long) list of things to look into in some PSF work, but not very high on that list right now. Feel free to contact me offline with additional details as an app that fails that I can test is always more interesting.
Until then, you could try adding the path to the Json using the relative path "VFS\COMMON~1" to see if that helps.
