*********************************************************************************

Folder Structure - 
Ensure you run the script from within the folder where your MSIX
Packages Reside and have extracted the MSIXMgr tool within that folder. The script
will call the x64 version and can be changed below if x86 is desired. It will then 
create a VHD_Files folder where the images are extracted.
