Unable to download a dedicated CAB-file of ADK

Hi, actually I'm unable to download this file of ADK:

e5f4f4dc519b35948be4500a7dfeab14.cab

I have downloaded the adksetup (e.g. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=39982),
I tried the version for Win8.0 and Win8.1, the english and a german version, but in all cases the download fails when I start the download with default ADK-selection.

I've found a direct download URL for this file, as mentioned in a different forum-entry regarding ADK (https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/de-DE/77349dc1-bc4f-4cf7-9b33-bf633ee91f30/unable-to-download-adk?forum=w8itproinstall), but this URL fails, too:

Any hints?

QW

I suspect it must be local to either your environment or locale.  I was able to download (and extract) the cab here

Hi Questionwoman,

Have you got any error code? What is the system language?

Please take the following steps to clear the windows update cache and then download it again to have a check.
Clear the windows update cache.
net stop wuauserv
cd %systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution
ren Download Download.old
net start wuauserv
Restart the machine and run the setup again.

Best regards
