Windows C service not writing to file in PreShutdown event

问题

I am working on a Windows Service written in C code.

In the service initialization code I have registered to a SERVICE_ACCEPT_PRESHUTDOWN event like this:

gSvcStatus.dwControlsAccepted = SERVICE_ACCEPT_STOP | SERVICE_ACCEPT_PRESHUTDOWN;

In the service control handler I have writen the logic to write to a file in the SERVICE_CONTROL_PRESHUTDOWN event like this:

DWORD WINAPI SvcCtrlHandler(DWORD dwCtrl, DWORD eventType, void *eventData, void *context)
{
    if (dwCtrl == SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP)
    {
        gSvcStatus.dwWin32ExitCode = 0;
        gSvcStatus.dwCurrentState = SERVICE_STOPPED;
    }
    else if (dwCtrl == SERVICE_CONTROL_PRESHUTDOWN)
    {
        char sentence[] = "Hello World";
        FILE *fptr;
        fptr = fopen("C:\\test\\program.txt", "w");
        if (fptr == NULL) {
            printf("Error!");
        }
        else
        {
            fprintf(fptr, "%s", sentence);
            fclose(fptr);
        }
        gSvcStatus.dwWin32ExitCode = 0;
        gSvcStatus.dwCurrentState = SERVICE_STOPPED;
    }
    SetServiceStatus(g_ServiceStatusHandle, &gSvcStatus);
    return NO_ERROR;
}

But after reboot, I am not able to see the file program.txt in test folder. Need help in fixing this issue.

What else I have tried:

I also tried writing to event Viewer using the SvcReportEvent function:

//
// Purpose: 
//   Logs messages to the event log
//
// Parameters:
//   szFunction - name of function that failed
// 
// Return value:
//   None
//
// Remarks:
//   The service must have an entry in the Application event log.
//
VOID SvcReportEvent(LPTSTR szFunction) 
{ 
    HANDLE hEventSource;
    LPCTSTR lpszStrings[2];
    TCHAR Buffer[80];

    hEventSource = RegisterEventSource(NULL, SVCNAME);

    if( NULL != hEventSource )
    {
        StringCchPrintf(Buffer, 80, TEXT("%s failed with %d"), szFunction, GetLastError());

        lpszStrings[0] = SVCNAME;
        lpszStrings[1] = Buffer;

        ReportEvent(hEventSource,        // event log handle
                    EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE, // event type
                    0,                   // event category
                    SVC_ERROR,           // event identifier
                    NULL,                // no security identifier
                    2,                   // size of lpszStrings array
                    0,                   // no binary data
                    lpszStrings,         // array of strings
                    NULL);               // no binary data

        DeregisterEventSource(hEventSource);
    }
}

Change done to SvcCtrlHandler function:

DWORD WINAPI SvcCtrlHandler(DWORD dwCtrl, DWORD eventType, void *eventData, void *context)
{
    if (dwCtrl == SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP)
    {
        SvcReportEvent((LPTSTR)TEXT("In function SvcCtrlHandler in condition SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP"));
        gSvcStatus.dwWin32ExitCode = 0;
        gSvcStatus.dwCurrentState = SERVICE_STOPPED;
    }
    else if (dwCtrl == SERVICE_CONTROL_PRESHUTDOWN)
    {
        SvcReportEvent((LPTSTR)TEXT("In function SvcCtrlHandler in condition SERVICE_CONTROL_PRESHUTDOWN"));
        gSvcStatus.dwWin32ExitCode = 0;
        gSvcStatus.dwCurrentState = SERVICE_STOPPED;
    }
    SetServiceStatus(g_ServiceStatusHandle, &gSvcStatus);
    return NO_ERROR;
}

Observation:

When I restart my computer, there is no Eventviewer log written
When I manually stop the service, a log is written into event viewer:

In function SvcCtrlHandler in condition SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP
