How to get File Location of Apps in Applications Folder??

[jly]

I want to traverse the Applications Folder(AppsFolder) to get all apps inside,
and then get File Location if there is an item named "Open file location" in right-menu .


In my current script, I can only get the name and path (APPUserModelId) of an app.
I don’t know how to get the File Location ("Open file location"). Do you know how to get the File Location ??

Applications is a virtual folder, similar to This PC, Control Panel, Network, etc.,
it can be viewed by clicking in the Address Bar of Explorer & typing shell:AppsFolder

Code: Select all

oFolder := ComObjCreate("Shell.Application").NameSpace("shell:Appsfolder")
for item in oFolder.Items
{
	a1 .= item.name   "          -          "    item.path "`n"
}
oFolder =
MsgBox % a1

esc::ExitApp

MsgBox, % SHGetKnownFolderPath(KFI)

SHGetKnownFolderPath(KnownFolderID) {
   Path := ""
   VarSetCapacity(GUID, 16, 0)
   If !DllCall("Ole32.dll\CLSIDFromString", "WStr", KnownFolderID, "Ptr", &GUID, "Int")
   && !DllCall("Shell32.dll\SHGetKnownFolderPath", "Ptr", &GUID, "UInt", 0, "Ptr", 0, "PtrP", StrPtr, "Int") {
      Path := StrGet(StrPtr, "UTF-16")
      DllCall("Ole32.dll\CoTaskMemFree", "Ptr", StrPtr)
   }
   Return Path
}

hello just_me, thank you very much!
The function above gets the path corresponding to CLSID,
is there any function to get the path corresponding to AUMID(APPUserModelId)?
