You can use the internet-based installer to download the files for OFFLINE use as well - just run the web installer with the
/layout option (that's what I did) :
For windows 7.1 WDK :
You can download the ISO
from this page directly (GRMWDK_EN_7600_1.ISO) .
For Windows 10 WDK :
Get the web installer (around 2 MB )
from this link and then run it with the /Layout option like this -
Code:
wdksetup.exe /Layout
and then it will prompt you where to store the file for OFFLINE use.
(In some cases I found that I have to supply the layout argument as
-layout instead of
/layout .. So just check out the syntax with
-help if needed).
For Windows 8.1 WDK :
Get the installer
from this link and follow the same procedure as for Windows 10 above.
These worked for me, as I find it vital to keep a copy of the WDK installer files of OFFLINE use.
I always keep sets of WDKs and SDKs for offline use for the various build and versions of Windows, as they are frequently removed off from the Microsoft site.
Downlaoding of all the 3 versions of the WDKs takes less than half an hour as they are not very huge ...
Cheers
