Not able to install office packages in windows docker containers

[rageanilkumar]

Hi,

We're currently encountering an issue with installing Office packages in the Microsoft team image (mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/framework/wcf:4.8-windowsservercore-ltsc2019). Despite attempts using both the Chocolatey command and a PowerShell script, we've been unsuccessful.

Here are the details of the error messages we're encountering:
