Finding the inpu tand output file directory

I am student. I am running OpenMC on windows with Docker. I can create and run files just fine but I cannot file the input or output directory. Any help is appreaciated.

Thanks

Hi @Abhishek and welcome to the OpenMC forum! Thanks for posting.

OpenMC writes a summary.h5, statepoint.h5, and tallies.out file (if tallies are present) in the same directory as the XML input files by default. Are those files present in the directory where you ran OpenMC?

The directory in which these files are written can be changed in the settings.xml file: https://docs.openmc.org/en/stable/io_formats/settings.html#output-element

If those files aren’t present, you may want to take a look at the settings.xml file to see if the output files are being directed to a different location.

If those suggestions don’t help, my final thought if that if you are using the windows linux subsystem to run docker and OpenMC, the directories of the subsystem may not be available in Windows explorer automatically.

I hope this helps and, again, welcome!
