Did you specify the full pathname? For example, in Windows 10, when 
adding a  two-filename text overlay to identify the two sides in a 
split-screen comparison of unstabilised vs stabilised versions of a 
clip, I used (only showing the -filter_complex part of the FFMPEG 
command line):

set fontfile='c\:/windows/fonts/ariblk.ttf'
set fontsize=48

-filter_complex "[0:v:0]pad=iw*2:ih[bg];[bg] 
[1:v:0]overlay=w,drawtext=text=%file1%:fontfile=%fontfile%:fontsize=%fontsize%:x=0:y=0,drawtext=text=%file2%:fontfile=%fontfile%:fontsize=%fontsize%:x=w/2:y=0"
