Cannot find Citra on my computer

Issue:
I cannot find Citra on my computer. I use Citra Nightly to play pokemon, but I can’t find it to open the app anywhere on my computer. I can’t search for it, I can’t find it on desktop, it isn’t anywhere. It was always like this, but before I would just launch it from “Recently added” but it isn’t there anymore. It is still on my computer, because I still have the option to uninstall it, but I can’t find it anywhere else.

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Six-Core Processor
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti

Try going up to the AppData folder, then look for nightly-mingw in the Local folder
