That location is not a function of logging, it's a function of running via
Windows Task Scheduler, which apparently starts the program with a current
directory of C:\Windows\System32. The solution is to give logging an
absolute path for the output file (which you can base of off __file__,
something like """os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "bumpr.log")""") .

Hope this helps,
