Where are store bought apps and games downloaded to?

[Windows Central Question]

I bought a game about 2 or 3 years ago and i wanted to play it again. I found it and can open it but I wanted to make a shortcut of it. The thing is for the life of me I cannot find out how to find it in my computers files to make a shortcut of the game. I have been looking online for an hour now and I'm getting frustrated.

I'm assuming you're using either windows 8.1 or 10

Go to start, open apps list, scroll to your game, right click the app and pin to start or desktop or taskbar
