Windows 10 Can't follow directory path

Shouldn't you be able to find any file on your computer "manually" by opening the folders listed in its location? For example, I just downloaded a Python interpreter. When I look at its location in its Properties, it says "C:\Users\Aaron\AppData\Local\Programs\Python," but when I try to follow that path with File Explorer, I get to the folder "Aaron," and there is no folder named "AppData" to open. Why is this?

Because it's hidden by default. You can use the view options to unhide it or simply append appdata in the address bar. You can still navigate to it

Ok, I figured it out. Thank you!
