Set the correct path to a file - c

Question

Im trying to compile the code below, it is a code free available and Im trying to understand it. And I was trying to test it but Im getting an issue. I got a message error "Error opening file filename.txt. Error 2".
I think that should be because the file is not located in the appropriated folder. I have the file in the desktop, do you know how to set the path to the file in c as th the desktop?

Or copy the file to where .exe resides.
