  3. "Open file location option" option not available for some applications.

    I like to dig around in files in order to change things that will fit better for me on Mac. However some apps don't have the "open file location" option in windows. I've tried doing this from multiple windows but the applications window (win+r then shell:AppsFolder)
    shows this the best as the apps without the open file option do not have a proper thumbnail.
