    Hello

    Thank you for your question and reaching out.
    I can understand you are having some issues related to WSA App installation in Windows 11.

    0x80073cfb means: The provided package is already installed, and reinstallation of the package was blocked. Check the AppXDeployment-Server event log for details.

    You can try to analyze AppXdeployment-Server enent log

    Please try to Remove the app, repair Windows Store, using cmdlet to remove an app for all users:

    $appToFix = "media" # For Example

    Get-AppxPackage -Name "$appToFix" -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers
