Explanation

Before using Azure VM Image Builder (AIB) in a subscription, you must register the Microsoft.VirtualMachineImages resource provider. Without this registration, the AIB service is unavailable and you cannot create image templates or run image builds. This is the mandatory first step, preceding any other setup such as creating a Compute Gallery, Storage account, or Desktop Virtualization resources. The Microsoft.DesktopVirtualization provider is specific to AVD and is not required for AIB itself.
