Pillow won't open an image in the same directory. "FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:"

The pillow library won't open an image in the same directory as the script anymore, while it used to. I haven't changed anything to do with how the file is loaded. I of course have the jpg in the folder with the script while I'm testing it.

I've tried the import to all three of these since I've read that works:

from PIL import Image  

import PIL.Image  

import PIL  

None of these have worked and the output is

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'pic.jpg'  

The code loading the image is:

def main(new_width=300):            try:          image = PIL.Image.open("pic.jpg")      except:          print("Please rename the file to 'pic.jpg' and restart the script")          quit()
