Describe the improvement
An "Open Folder" or "Jump to Location" function added to each app/packge's info pane -- or simply reporting a package's location on disk within its info pane.
Describe how this improvement could help users.
I've been having an issue where some apps/packages appear to update, however, the old version after restarting WingetUI, some updates not taking. This is caused in some cases by a package existing in more than one location.
Having a "Locate" function or reporting the location would help in troubleshooting, to quickly assess where and what specifically WingetUI is evaluating for each particular package, assisting version crosschecking.
Obviously some managers install everything into a single location, thus wouldn't be necessary. However, there'd be no harm reporting it nonetheless, still useful information and requiring minimal UI space.
That said, there's a good chance I am overlooking this having already being implemented, and I apologize if so.

I'm having a similar type of problem. In my case, the installed version of the app (7zip) is correct and up to date, but WingetUI shows an older version. I initially thought it was due to the PSCX module, which has a copy of 7z.dll, but removing that module did not clear the finding. It took searching my entire system for instances of 7z.exe to discover the issue is my NVIDIA GeForce Experience driver, which apparently includes an older copy of the file. Might also be handy to have the option to exclude a specific path for a particular package, in addition to being able to jump to the location of the outdated package.
Please confirm these before moving forward
