Solution

1. Ensure the partition/drive you are installing from is NTFS

2. Redownload WSA Build .zip (sometime the files can be corrupted during download and extraction)

3. Delete all folders containing "WindowsSubsystemForAndroid" in the following directories/paths:

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\AppRepository
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsApps
%localappdata\ProgramData\Packages

4. Restart your Computer

Hope this works for you!
