You can change the fileName attribute in the RuntimeConfig.xml for the OpenSpan.Diagnostics.Publishers.FilePublisher to point to a specific path. The path should be local to the machine as it writes lots of data.
<publisher mode="off" trace_mode="on" exception_mode="on" assembly="OpenSpan" type="OpenSpan.Diagnostics.Publishers.FilePublisher" fileName="C:\Logs\RuntimeLog.txt" filesToKeep="1" initMode="ClearLog" />

I have already seen this link but, in OpenSpan.Runtime.exe.config file, where do you need to modify or insert the event viewer path?
In attached the OpenSpan.Runtime.exe.config file.

What folder are you trying to write to?

The Runtimelog does not write to an Event Viewer folder. It is a text file - not an eventlog file.

I would like the Runtimelog file not to be present in AppData, but in a specific folder.

If I put as path "C:\Windows\System32\winevt\Logs\RuntimeLog.txt", the file RuntimeLog.txt is not created. But for example on the desktop it was created correctly.

You can also change the location to one of 3 places by editing the CommonConfig.xml file in C:\ProgramData\OpenSpan. Here are the locations available.
