I have a batch file which disables BIOS updates in Dell command:


“%PROGRAMFILES%\Dell\CommandUpdate\dcu-cli.exe”/configure -autoSuspendBitLocker=disable -outputLog=C:\Temp\dell.log



The remediation code is:


Copy-Item -Path “dellcommand.bat” -Destination “c:\Temp”


Start-Process C:\Temp\dellcommand.bat


New-Item -Path “C:\Program Files\Dell\CommandUpdate” -Name “BIOSudDisabled” -ItemType “Directory”



It copies the batch file to the temp folder and creates the new folder but there is no evidence of the batch file actually being executed.



I can’t seem to get my head around why as everything works fine when run locally. Any help appreciated.

Is this a 32bit machine? On my 64bit, Dell Command is installed in to Program Files x86


Yes it’s in the 64bit folder. I was under the impression only the 64bit registry that required scriptblocks if that’s what you’re thinking.
