Description

https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/blob/8b576831a27c7d44ef1fd3e25de52d1d1a52790e/manifests/a/AutoHotkey/AutoHotkey/2.0.15/AutoHotkey.AutoHotkey.installer.yaml#L13

After installing 2.0.15 with winget there is no folder in "Program Files".

Is this because there's no actual install path specified? Am I reading that right?

Research direction

Review the AutoHotkey 2.0.15 manifest at the linked installer.yaml line, focusing on whether the installer configuration specifies an installation path. Reproduce the installation with winget and compare the resulting files with the expected Program Files location; done means the package installs successfully to the intended location.
