How can I get winres.exe (.net resource editor) tool?

I would like to use Windows Forms Resource Editor but I can't find winres.exe file in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin nor C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin folders. I searched whole disk for winres.exe file and it is not present. I have reinstalled .NET Framework 3.5 but it hasn't help.

How can I get this file?

If you are on Win10 with Visual Studio 2017, then open Developer Command Prompt for VS 2017 (Win+S and type in relevant keywords) and winres will be accessible there without environment tweaking.

Do you mean you've installed the .NET Framework SDK or just the Framework? It should be included in the Framework SDK, and once installed you can run it from command prompt just by typing winres.
