I want to set up a hotkey tool called Autohotkey to open up a program called "Trello" when I hit a certain key combination. For that I need to know the absolute path of the program. The only problem is, I can't seem to figure out where it is installed, since it was installed via the Microsoft Store.
The code for my hotkey is supposed to look something like this:
#t::Run, "C:\Program Files (x86)\Trello\trello.exe"
which causes it to run, when I hit Windows + T.
So how do I get the path for Trello?

Finding this isn't easy, but it can be done.
cd ~\Desktop
Get-AppxPackage >apps.txt
InstalledLocation
field, copy the path, press WIN+R to open the Run dialog, and paste in the path. Hit Enter to open the folder in ExplorerAppManifest.xml
file, and open it in NotepadId
). Some packages can have more than one application, so check theExecutable
is what you'd expectshell:AppsFolder\<PackageIdentity>!<ApplicationIdentity>
TL;DR: try
shell:AppsFolder\45273LiamForsyth.PawsforTrello_7pb5ddty8z1pa!trello
Sidenote: this also works on the command line or in PowerShell by using
start <path>
