An unexpected error occurred while executing the command:
0x80072efd : unknown error
Expected behavior
I expected the install to complete, but it turns out the Sysinternals package isn't supported on 1809, only 1903+. This is silly, but I suspect it won't change.
Actual behavior
An unexpected error occurred while executing the command:
0x80072efd : unknown error

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by locating the Sysinternals package manifest and the msstore source metadata, then check how minimum OS requirements are represented for Windows 1809 versus 1903+. Done means the manifest communicates the supported minimum OS instead of producing only the vague installation error.
