Windows 8/Server 2012 and VAMT

So, I recently had occasion to try to integrate Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Server 2012, and 2012 R2 hosts into our VAMT setup.

Much to my dismay, VAMT 3.0 (from SDK v7) rejected the Windows 8 and newer keys.

So I Googled for Windows SDK, got the ADK from MSDN from the top result, installed it...

...and got VAMT 3.0 and erroring out on those keys. What?

So, after much searching, it seems you need ADK 8.1 (or at least, VAMT 3.1, which is in ADK 8.1) to use these keys with it, which you can find here, despite search results not listing it on top as of this posting.

Hope this helps someone, since I couldn't find anyone who had posted about this online.
