That particular path is actually already indexed (https://github.com/dkgv/pinpoint/blob/master/Pinpoint.Plugin.AppSearch/StandardAppProvider.cs#L12) so it seems strange that no results show up. Is the file extension of Kusto.Explorer not .lnk?
good call, its a "Application Reference":
mgrandi@mgrandi-laptop:/mnt/c/Users/mgrandi/AppData/Roaming/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Kusto.Explorer$ ls -lah

This is indeed a ClickOnce application and it seems to point to a URL, and then windows knows how to find the local copy of the installation and see if it needs to be updated, a short blurb i found on stack overflow: https://stackoverflow.com/a/281232/975046
It seems that applications in this directory:
C:\Users\mgrandi\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\*
are not being picked up by AppSearch(sorry, messed up the first one, here is it showing that it is indeed picked up by the windows start menu)
as an example
i'll try and find the exact code spot later, just reporting before i forget!
