Location of WSDL.exe

Question

I recently heard of WSDL.Exe, but I am not sure where to find this program. Does anyone know where I can find or download it?

Answer 1

You'll get it as part of a Visual Studio install (if you included the SDK), or in a standalone SDK install. It'll live somewhere like C:\program files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\Bin

If you don't already have it, you can download the .NET SDKs from

Answer 2

In case anyone using VS 2008 (.NET 3.5) is also looking for the wsdl.exe. I found it here:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin\wsdl.exe

Answer 3

And on my Windows 7 machine it is here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.1A\bin\NETFX 4.5.1 Tools

Note that the file wsdl.exe is portable, in that you can copy it to another windows machine and it works. I have not tried to see if the 4.5 exe will work on a machine that only have .NET 2.0, but this would be interesting to know.

Answer 4

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bin\wsdl.exe

(via this question: Where can I find WSDL.exe?)

Answer 5

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v10.0A\bin\NETFX 4.6.1 Tools

Answer 6

It is included with .NET (not sure if only in the SDK).

Answer 7

If you have Windows 10 and VS2015, below you can see the Location of WSDL.exe
