What do you see in the terminal window, or the PuTTY Event Log?
If I tell PuTTY to log to a file in a directory it _can't_ access, then
in the terminal window I see a message such as
Error writing session log (raw mode) to file: z:\putty.log
and the same error message appears at the bottom of the Event Log.
On the other hand, when you _do_ successfully enable logging, nothing
appears in the terminal window, but the Event Log contains a message indicating successful opening of the log file:
2024-05-03 10:22:47 Writing new session log (raw mode) to file: z:\putty.log
So, which of those do you see? That will tell us whether PuTTY _knows_
it failed to write the file, or whether the Windows API claimed
everything worked fine.
With Putty 0.81 no Windows 11, when I select to log to a file, then
open the session, no log file is created.
