I am getting the same error, though I have verified the package name is correct. I am trying to uninstall the Reader App from a captured WIM (offline). Any suggestions?

dism /image:c\mount Get-ProvisionedAppxPackage Result:

Architecture : neutral
ResourceId : ~
PackageName : Microsoft.Reader_2013.822.1823.785_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe

Attempt to remove the app returns this same error message:
