How to use System variable (%appdata%) in file path for custom inventory?

Hello All,

I am trying to create a custom inventory by using ShellCommandTestReturn, but it's not working. Here is the command syntax;

ShellCommandTextReturn(cmd /c type %APPDATA%\Thunderbird\profiles.ini)

Also tried, ShellCommandTextReturn(cmd /c type "%APPDATA%\Thunderbird\profiles.ini")

I think the issue is using system variable %AppData% in the file location. 

Any suggestion?

Thank you

The logic behind it seems not plausable.

The %appdata% path variable is in the user context, so it will be changing constistantly, a CIR wont cut it.


A KScript where you woud monitor all userpaths with foreach user in user woud be better. If you're useing a static enviroument it woud be feasable task to monitor the main user and look specific for this user and print it in a text file or user the specific path for the main user in a CIR.
