The file is in %ProgramFiles%\Windows Resource Kits\Tools

This file is where you add any additional WMI queries you'd like to add to
the GPInventory GUI. To perform RSOP queries, the remote computers will need
the Remote Administration firewall exception.

Do you have admin permissions to the target machine? What's the wording of
the error message you are getting?
