Description
After installing the "WooCommerce Subscriptions" plugin, I clicked on "Manage plugin" and was taken to the /plugins/manage screen.
Once there I clicked the "WooCommerce" link in the sidebar and was taken to the subscription plugin screen /plugins/woocommerce-subscriptions/:site.
Once there, every WooCommerce link links back to the page I was on.

Only after a hard refresh of the page does the menu update correctly and take me to wc-admin where I'm pushed into the plugin based setup wizard.

Research direction
Reproduce the navigation from /plugins/manage to /plugins/woocommerce-subscriptions/:site after installing WooCommerce Subscriptions, then compare it with the hard-refresh behavior that reaches wc-admin. Trace the Marketplace route and WooCommerce sidebar links, and consider the issue done when each link leaves the subscription screen without requiring a hard refresh.
