Correspondent denis.bitouze at univ-littoral.fr reports a Windows installation problem:
>> TLPDB::_install_data: untar failed for D:/archive/tlperl.windows.r69939.tar.xz
>> TLUtils::install_packages: Failed to install tlperl.windows
Perhaps the file tlperl.windows.r69939.tar.xz did not download completely.
At the CTAN mirror in Utah, I find
% ls -l tex-archive/systems/texlive/tlnet/archive/tlperl.windows.r69939.tar.xz
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mirror mirror 10600216 Feb 17 17:51 tex-archive/systems/texlive/tlnet/archive/tlperl.windows.r69939.tar.xz
% md5sum tex-archive/systems/texlive/tlnet/archive/tlperl.windows.r69939.tar.xz
6a8162c63090d6e2dc302dcc5ee130be tex-archive/systems/texlive/tlnet/archive/tlperl.windows.r69939.tar.xz
When I uncompress the tar.xz file, I get
% ls -l tlperl.windows.r69939.tar
-rw-rw-r-- 1 beebe wheel 86835200 May 13 12:30 tlperl.windows.r69939.tar
% md5sum tlperl.windows.r69939.tar

Can you verify the filesizes and MD5 checksums at your end?
