Deploy DupScout to Microsoft Intune

Flexense Computing Systems Ltd.Windowsversion 17.3.12, 29 September 2025

DupScout is in the PatchBee catalog as a Windows app from Flexense Computing Systems Ltd., synced from the Windows Package Manager community repository (winget). Pick it in the App Library and PatchBee writes the deployment plan below, builds the package, publishes it to your Intune tenant and assigns it to the Entra groups you choose. New versions then follow through your update rings.

Install from the command line

winget install --id Flexense.DupScout -e --silent

PatchBee runs the same silent install of DupScout for you in Intune: the installer winget points at, verified, packaged with the switches and detection rule below, and published to your tenant.

The plan PatchBee writes

DupScout as an Intune app

The standard form for a NSIS (x64, scope decided at plan time). The real plan is generated from the installer when you package, and shown in full before anything is published; every field can be changed.

Intune app type
Windows app (Win32), .intunewin
Install
"DupScout.exe" /S
Uninstall
"uninstall.exe" /S
Detection
Registry: the NSIS uninstall key. Uninstall key Dup Scout, DisplayVersion 17.3.12 or newer.
Requirements
x86 (32-bit), x64

Why these values: silent install switches and detection rules, explained.

x64NSISscope decided at plan timeSHA-256 published

PatchBee downloads the installer from the publisher's own URL and verifies its SHA-256 against the catalog before packaging. "None published" means the source carries no hash for this download, so that check has nothing to compare against; packaging still works.

About DupScout

DupScout is a duplicate files search and removal solution allowing one to search duplicate files in disks, directories, network shares or NAS storage devices. The user is provided with the ability to review detected duplicate files, generate reports, replace duplicate files with shortcuts or hard links, move duplicate files to another directory, compress and move duplicates or delete all duplicate files.

DupScout allows one to save HTML, PDF, Excel, text, CSV and XML reports. Advanced users are provided with the ability to export reports from multiple servers to a centralized SQL database and perform history trend analysis operations.

DupScout allows one to scan the network, discover network servers and NAS storage devices, automatically detect all accessible network shares and search duplicate files in hundreds of network servers and NAS storage devices. In addition, the user is provided with the ability to export the list of detected servers and NAS storage devices (including lists of network shares for each server) into HTML, PDF, text and CSV reports.

In order to search duplicate files in one or more servers or NAS storage devices, press the 'Network' button located on the main toolbar and wait while DupScout will scan the network and show a list of detected network servers and NAS storage devices. On the network servers and NAS storage devices dialog, select the required servers and press the 'Duplicates' button.

How this becomes an app in your tenant

Sign in with your Microsoft work account and connect your Intune tenant once. Find DupScout in the App Library, open its plan (the commands, detection rule and requirements above, editable) and publish: PatchBee downloads and verifies the installer, builds the package, creates the Intune app and assigns your groups. When Flexense Computing Systems Ltd. ships a new version, PatchBee detects it and rolls it out through your rings, with supersedence and rollback.

Catalog data as of 11 October 2026, from the Windows Package Manager community repository (winget). The product re-reads the source every night and plans against the live catalog, so the version here may already be one behind. Nothing is published to a tenant without an administrator approving the plan.
