How to get a file path?

I have a text file called WaterQuality1.txt in one of my folders and I tried to create a File object in Main by writing "File file1 = new File("WaterQuality1.txt");" but it's giving me a FileNotFoundException. Am I writing the file path wrong? Or something else?

Thanks!

Yes. If you have Windows you must hold in SHIFT while right-clicking the file whose path you want to copy. When the options come up select "Copy as path."

At least that's one way of doing it.
