[REQUEST] Looking for “Windows 8 Portable Device Enabling Kit for MTP” (MicrosoftWindows8DEK.msi)

[Black Doomer]

This was a newer version of the same kit for Windows 7, which adds support for revision 1.1 of the MTP standard.
It's still mentioned on the official Microsoft website, but the file itself is no longer available, unfortunately - the link here is 404.

It is worth noting that this page was originally located at the following web addresses:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/dn632436(v=vs.85).aspx
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/dn614620(v=vs.85).aspx
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/gg463541.aspx
But it was not preserved in the Wayback Machine either.

There was a person downloading this file on Microsoft Q&A, but that's all I can find these days.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/2690815/cant-install-mtp-driver-on-windows-8-1-n-pro?page=2#answers

As for the Windows 7 version with MTP 1.0 support, it is still available, which is oddly enough.

The only hope left is that someone also downloaded this file and subsequently saved it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

The first place I figured to look was the Device Partner Center

However, I no longer have access to this site because my MPN account is completely jacked up. You can see if the site will let you register on it but it may require special priveledges on your MS account, besides having to use their 2FA app which I am also not sure if that can be used with a regular MS account.

Yep, the personal account is not suitable, unfortunately.

That isn't the error I get so I wasn't sure. I have a personal account too, but just tied to MPN, migrated to AAD, merged with Mojang and had *some* org privs removed. It is hit and miss whether I can use it to log into anything. Actually for this site it does let me log in but it goes to a 404 page.
