Add files to scan

[Trin]

I am trying to get a report for a certain exe file located in all users profile folder. In Custom Scanning, I 'Add files to scan' but am not sure of the correct parameters for %username%.
So it will scan all user profiles on PC for this exe.
I suspected might be something like C:\users\%username%\AppData\Local\filename.exe but this isn't returning any results. Is this possible to do?

Thank you.

This placeholder can't be used for custom file scanning. You need to specify the exact path and file name to be scanned. The only placeholders available are %windir%, %programfiles% and %programfiles(x86)%.

Recently we have posted a script here which you could deploy using the deployment feature of Lansweeper. It locally scans computers for certain file types and writes the result into a TXT file. You might consider giving that a try.
