Reproduction steps:

1. Create a New Project
2. Save the Scene and add it to "Scenes in Build"
3. Exit Unity
4. Use Command Line Arguments to build your project in batch mode

Expected Result: The project builds successfully
Actual Result: The project fails to build for certain build targets

Using: "-batchmode -BuildTarget "C:\Users\user\Downloads\Project\build\test.exe" -logFile "C:\Users\user\Downloads\Project\build\test.txt" -projectPath "C:\Users\user\Downloads\Project" -quit" (Doesn't create a log file)
