    Where are the files for the store app located?

    Hi Yehuda,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community. We understand the inconvenience caused and will assist you.

    I would like to inform that the apps that are downloaded from Windows Store will be located in the location:

    C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Packages

    To navigate to this location, you will have to unhide the hidden folders by following the steps provided below:

    • Open File Explorer.
    • Click on View and check the option for Hidden items.

    Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

    Open file location is missing in pinned apps


    Yes. This is the one. Weirdly it now shows all the recent files after update. Maybe that has something to do with it. I did not do anything at all.

    Thank you again. I guess the problem is solved.

    ,
    No, that's not the sort of 'file location' the OP is referring to. Your 'file location' opens File Explorer at the location of the shortcut for that app in the Start Menu's Programs folder. The OP wants the list of recently opened files, or the Jump List as it is known (hover over each one and it shows its file location). Theirs is turned off (and yours by the looks of it).
