Netflix new app for PC is just web-wrapper without download features. miss the Netflix windows app and it was few developers to make proper windows metro UI based application!!
Worse, they restrict high quality streaming to certain browsers (4k on edge and 1080p on chrome, though there is a firefox extension that can bypass the restriction and achieve 1080p.) More on reddit.com

PowerShell is a very powerful tool and can do pretty much anything with any Microsoft product, including UWP Apps.

To find where an appx is installed you can use the command Get-AppxPackage -Name PackageName.

The package names are usually very hard to guess, for example the current name of the Netflix app is "4DF9E0F8.Netflix". Some app names have 0 relation to the name shown in the start menu.

To make it a bit easier, you can use the Where-Object instead of the -Name parameter.

Get-AppxPackage | Where-Object {$_.Name -like "*flix*"}

This will look for any appx packages which name matches *flix*.

The result on my computer is this:

Name              : 4DF9E0F8.Netflix
Publisher         : CN=52120C15-ACFA-47FC-A7E3-4974DBA79445
Architecture      : X64
ResourceId        :
Version           : 6.93.478.0
PackageFullName   : 4DF9E0F8.Netflix_6.93.478.0_x64__mcm4njqhnhss8
InstallLocation   : C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\4DF9E0F8.Netflix_6.93.478.0_x64__mcm4njqhnhss8
IsFramework       : False
PackageFamilyName : 4DF9E0F8.Netflix_mcm4njqhnhss8
PublisherId       : mcm4njqhnhss8
IsResourcePackage : False
IsBundle          : False
IsDevelopmentMode : False
NonRemovable      : False
IsPartiallyStaged : False
SignatureKind     : Store
Status            : Ok

In the C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\4DF9E0F8.Netflix_6.93.478.0_x64__mcm4njqhnhss8 folder I can see that it's a WinJS app written in HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

There's no Netflix.exe in that folder?

There's not. I don't think you've ever seen a Netflix.exe (unless it's a virus). Here's a screenshot from my Task Manager while having Netflix up and running.

You need to add C:\Windows\System32\WWAHost.exe to your VPN exception list. Because Netflix is a UWP app thus WWAHost.exe is used for networking.

Note: Any apps that use WWAHost.exe will be affected as well.
