Hi, I was trying to isntall linux subsystem through powershell, and when I tried to use "Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName VirtualMachinePlatform" command, I get a following error,

Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature : Feature name VirtualMachinePlatform is unknown.

At line:1 char:1

+ Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName VirtualMachinePlat ...

+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature], COMException

    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.Dism.Commands.EnableWindowsOptionalFeatureCommand

Not so sure how to fix this. 

I first posted this on Microsoft Community, and one suggestion was to "Locate the Trusted Installer service, restart it, and set the startup type to automatic," but I wasn't able to locate that as well. How should I go about this issue?

Thanks
