Deno compile not able to create files?

I want to create a simple CLI for a colleague at work that outputs a CSV file but I cannot seem to get Deno to create a file, even with the simplest of tests.

When I run this normally using Deno run -A index.tsDeno run -A index.ts it will work as intended but when compiled and run through the executable it will run successfully but no file is created.

Target OS: Windows
Dev OS: Mac M1 (arm)

CODE

async function main() {
  await Deno.writeTextFile("hello.txt", "Hello World\n");
}
main()

async function main() {
  await Deno.writeTextFile("hello.txt", "Hello World\n");
}
main()

Compile Command

Deno compile -A index.ts

Deno compile -A index.ts
