Hi everyone,

I recently upgraded my operating system to Windows 8.1 and I'm now in the process of updating all my device drivers to ensure compatibility. However, I'm having trouble finding the download link for the Windows Driver Kit 8.1 Update. I've searched extensively on the official Microsoft website, but I couldn't find the specific link for this update. I also looked on various driver download websites, but to no avail. Could someone please provide me with the direct link to download the Windows Driver Kit 8.1 Update? I would really appreciate any assistance you can provide. Thanks in advance!
