So I've been trying to solve the "The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission" problem and everything I've been reading says I need to get "DCOMperm.exe". There are plenty of links to usage and download links that point to non-MS sources. I'd like to get this direct from Microsoft, but I can't find it there.
Some people say that it's part of an SDK, but I'm not sure which one. Does anyone have any experience getting this exe?
The source code for dcomperm.exe is included with the Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4.
The project source directory is:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Samples\com\fundamentals\dcom\dcomperm
There's source code here on GitHub, with a sln and a vcxproj file:
I'm able to build it with VS 2022 (with various options installed for building native code).
Is this for an application you're writing or for another application/component? If it's for another application/component then you can use dcomcfng to configure the permissions.
You can get the compiled version here:

Someone has kindly posted a genuine compiled version with batch files too.
