Why doesn't Discord installed to the usual Windows folders of C:\Program Files or C\Program Files (x86)? If it's not in Program Files, where does it install to?

On Windows, Discord is installed to C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Discord. You find it by entering %localappdata%\Discord in the Windows Explorer path bar.
As for why Discord installs to AppData...
It's because we use the Squirrel Installer, it doesn't offer much customization, we're working on our own custom installer.
Note: Currently it is not possible to change Discord's default installation location, despite being a fairly popular request.
