Inspect.exe missing in Windows SDK for Server 2008

Question

The Windows SDK for Server 2008 does not include Inspect.exe. Does anyone know where I might find a copy of Inspect.exe or AccExplorer32.exe? I'm running the 64 bit version of Windows Server 2008 R2.

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.
