Repro Steps

Install WSL through Terminal (Administrator) the normal way with "wsl --install" go to Microsoft Store and press "Check for updates" it appears "Something went wrong" with error code 0X80073CFB. Do "wsl --update" and it says "Checking for updates.
The most recent version of Windows Subsystem for Linux is already installed."
Tried some commands like DISM to see if it was a problem with Microsoft Store but apparently WSL it is the only app that doesn't update all the other apps update which means it's a problem with WSL.

Expected Behavior

Updating or saying it was already updated

Actual Behavior

It says "Something went wrong" with this error code 0X80073CFB on Microsoft Store
