If you upgrade to the latest preview release WinGet v1.5.1081-preview, it'll show you the zipped/portable packages install locations in winget --info. Regarding the actual issue, it is a case of package depending on .dlls that are not available via symlinks and blocked by

As a workaround, you can install the latest preview release and run the install command in a user shell (with developer mode disabled)

I might convert this one to draft because it depend on another stable release.
