Install Brother Control Center 3 for DCP 560CN under Windows 8 to scan multi page PDF

According to Brother, ControlCenter 3 does not support Windows 8. But i like the scan multiple pages into a PDF function of it, so i wanted it back on Windows 8 as well.

How-i-fixed-it:

I downloaded the Windows 7 Version here:

I decompresses itself into a local folder. Then I set the compatibily mode of the "Setup.exe" to "Windows 7" and installed the Software.

To make the scan to email function working with my Outlook 2010, i also downloaded and installed the Update Tool for ControlCenter3 from here:
http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/eu/de/de/dlf/dlf/000000/003100/dlf003176.html?reg=eu&c=de&lang=de&prod=dcp560cn_all&type2=2&os=93&flang=17&dlid=dlf003176

With the software installed, i was able to scan multiple plages into a single PDF without problems.
