r/Intune on Reddit: Dell Command Update with XML
February 11, 2023 -

Trying to push out the newest DCU with an xml file for the settings that I want to use. I’ve looked on YouTube, Dell and here for answers but still cannot seem to find anything that works. I’m looking for the simplest solution. I don’t write scripts and am just a desktop support technician so this is new for me.

Right now I’m using the MSI and have tried bundling into intunewinapp as well as LOB but cannot seem to get it to pick up the XML file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Managing Dell Command | Update for Azure AD Joined Devices
You can configure DCU with a pre-defined configuration (for automatic updates, etc.) upon installation, so depending on how much control you want/need it is very customizable. I took the "set and forget" approach and haven't had any issues. More on reddit.com

Hey man, what i found is that you export the xml from a machine where you have configured the settings. Once the app is installed you need to call the main EXE for dell update and specify it to import the xml file......let me find the documentation..... More on reddit.com

Integrating Dell Tools and Intune - Recast
February 23, 2026 - In this image you can see that I used to have DCU 3.1.2 installed, the Proactive Remediation Script noticed and updated it to 4.1.0, when I go into DCU, I see that it did successfully apply my XML file. At this point, it will only update the items I’ve configured, and it will pull those updates from Dell. The next step now is to configure other DCU settings via Intune.

r/Intune on Reddit: Managing Dell Command | Update for Azure AD Joined Devices
September 1, 2021 -

Is anyone managing Dell Command | Update for Azure AD Joined devices (cloud only)? My understanding is that you can use the Dell Cloud Repository Manager to specify what drivers/BIOS updates you want and it spits out an XML. This XML would then need to be delivered to the device via Intune and consumed by Dell Command. You would need to update this XML and repeat the process every month or every quarter whenever you pick new drivers or BIOS. Unless, however you just said install ALL drivers and BIOS then it might be a set it and forget it operation. Thoughts on this process?

r/Intune on Reddit: Dell Command Update
January 21, 2021 -

Hi guys,

So am trying to deploy this tool by using this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoIN6DXYWRA&feature=youtu.be

Everything works fine except for the fact that on the device the app has default values only, not the ones I have changed prior to exporting the .xml

Did any of you work with this tool and can assist? Thanks.

EDIT:

Managed to fix the issue by running a PS script as a custom detection script with the following arguments:

New-ItemProperty -Path Registry::"HKLM\SOFTWARE\Dell\UpdateService\Clients\CommandUpdate\Preferences\CFG" -Name "ShowSetupPopup" -PropertyType "DWORD" -Value "0" -Force

Start-Process "C:\Program Files\Dell\CommandUpdate\dcu-cli.exe" -ArgumentList "/configure -lockSettings=enable" -NoNewWindow -Wait

Start-Process "C:\Program Files\Dell\CommandUpdate\dcu-cli.exe" -ArgumentList "/configure -scheduleAuto" -NoNewWindow -Wait

Start-Process "C:\Program Files\Dell\CommandUpdate\dcu-cli.exe" -ArgumentList "/configure -userConsent=disable" -NoNewWindow -Wait

Start-Process "C:\Program Files\Dell\CommandUpdate\dcu-cli.exe" -ArgumentList "/configure -scheduleAction=DownloadInstallAndNotify" -NoNewWindow -Wait

Edit 2:

Having an issue with 3 devices that offer exit code 1602, but the users didn't cancel the instalation.

Edit 3:

Found out the reason. It was because either Dell Support Assist or Dell Updater was installed on the target machine. So if you are trying this, make sure to uninstal first.

Dell Command Update Deployment, Automation, and Common Pitfalls - Recast
July 9, 2025 - The DCU has command line options that let you configure the XML file on the local machine. You can even script random check-in times to spread load across the fleet. Dell’s documentation includes examples for the /configure switch. When you extract DCU, you’ll find ADMX templates you can import into Group Policy and link to specific OUs. This can help you have a more controlled rollout of when those devices get new updates. Intune also supports custom ADMX upload, letting you target policies to dynamic device groups.
