but the program is able to read the file that I have no idea where it is!

Hi,

Not 100% sure, but you can check in the following *hidden* directory on Windows 10:
"C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\"
(most things are saved in there from what I know)

Your are right. I also came up with an obvious solution and feel so dumb:
All I had to to was including
Print(GetWritePath())
And that's how I found the path where the file was being saved :S
(which is indeed the one you wrote down)
And I thought that searching everything (hidden files included) with admin privileges would be enough to have Windows Explorer show me the file. Darn it!
Thanks.
