I've been doing exercises from this routine two or three times a week and it's made a big difference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2d_dC8O_IM

I saw a physio for runner's knee a couple of months ago; she had no issue with my belief that squats and lunges were doing more harm than good (which is why I had dropped them). She prescribed massage of the quads and an exercise I won't attempt to describe. It has helped greatly.
