java on windows terminal doesn't output files
I wrote Java code in FileWriter, and when I run it on the Windows Terminal, it's supposed to output a file to the folder it's running on, but it doesn't.
Sometimes it works miraculously, but most of the time it doesn't.
When I run the same code on my school's Linux machine, there are no issues and the files are outputted just fine, which eliminates the possibility of a faulty code.
What I don't know is what's the cause of the problem, it can't be java because javac is working properly, right? If so can you help me fix this problem?
This is the code I use just for reference:
File file1 = new File("simulation.txt");
FileWriter writer1 = new FileWriter(file1);
try {
writer1.write(mips.simulationText);
writer1.close();
}
java windows terminal

O.K. I posted an answer suitable for new user, got negative vote - delete it... I suppose It should be the comment. My suggestion was to write following statement before writing to the file to see where is the file actually stored:System.out.println(file1.getAbsolutePath());... Good luck.
