Solution:

1. Download the Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4 (ISO)
2. Unzip using 7Zip or a similar archive tool
3. Navigate to Setup\WinSDKTools
4. Open cab1.cab (this is just like a .zip file, any archving tool should be able to open it)
5. Locate WinSDK_Inspect_exe_x86, extract it to a folder somewhere, add the .exe extension
6. All done!

I should mention that Window Detective does the same thing as Inspect.exe, but does it better, so it's an excellent alternative.

Download a web installer - http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3138 Select just "Windows development tools" and "Debugging tools for Windows" to save your disk space.

It will take about 200 Mb.

Continue and enjoy!

Strangely enough. Microsoft site shows this should be a part of Windows SDK. Maybe you should try some other version of SDK?
