Need Support with clarify read\write abilities of tested apps.

For instance, the application being tested should, upon every launch, write its state to a specific log file (and create it if it doesn't exist). However, when launching the tested application during automated tests, the log files aren't being created or modified. Yet, during manual launch, this happens according to the documentation.

But it's a fact. When launching the tested application, log files are not created or modified. With manual launch, we see the opposite. TestComplete runs with administrator privileges.

The version of TestComplete we are using is 15.55.53.7 x64. The application under test is written in C++ and doesn't log any reasons for what's happening. It simply doesn't create or modify its logs when launched under TestComplete, although there are no issues in manual mode. This was the reason for my question - does TestComplete with administrator rights in any way affect the application under test, specifically its ability to read and write its information to the designated location in the file system?
