Description
Hi,
I recently noticed that the manual installation location givene here:
https://github.com/docker/scout-cli?tab=readme-ov-file#cli-plugin-installation
Does not fit for my Windows 11 x64 installation.
Location given is:
%USERPROFILE%\.docker\scout
Real location of 'docker-scout.exe' is:
C:\Program Files\Docker\cli-plugins
Actually it looks like that 'docker-scout.exe' is also available in this path.
However, this location doesn't seem to have an impact on running it from the CLI.
C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\cli-plugins
Would be great, if somebody could check this, please.
