Here's a test script for you that will pop up a windows message box to
tell you where the file it is writing is truly located.  See what it
says on the two platforms.  Yes it's a few lines of code, but it will
surely tell you where the problem is.

import os
import ctypes

Starter = open("HLYlog.txt","w");
filepath = Starter.name

# following should be all on one line
ctypes.windll.user32.MessageBoxExW(None, os.path.abspath(filepath),
"True file path", 0x40000)
