Issue with finding an executable file

Question

Hello,

I recently bought Minecraft Legends and I wanted to make a desktop shortcut. there was no option to enable it in the installation menu so I've been looking for the folder. I looked all over my Program Files and Program Files(x86) folder and didn't find it. I tried right-clicking it from the windows menu, knowing it worked on windows 10 (I am currently on windows 11) and it didn't work.

I wonder if someone knows where I can find the executable or if there is another way to create a desktop shortcut for that application.

Answer 1

I have only purchased one game and that is Golf with your friends. It is listed under my apps. See image below. I do have PC game pass subscription.

Answer 2

Yes I have, I also looked under each microsoft file that wasn't stuff like office, excel, Visual Studio, etc... (since mojang is now microsoft's) and I didn't find anything. I also looked to see if I could find the minecraft java executable and I couldn't find that either. There is a folder somewhere for microsoft games that I also looked at and it wasn't there either.

Answer 3

Have you looked at All apps under M? If it's there you can pin it to the taskbar.
