You can download the new ADMT version from CONNECT and you need to sign in with your Windows Live ID. All previous versions of ADMT are now deprecated! This version of ADMT supports Windows/AD versions up to the latest and greatest Windows Server 2012 R2.

Navigate to https://connect.microsoft.com/directory/non-feedback, and somewhere at the top (at the time of writing) find in the "product" column "Azure Active Directory Customer Connection" with in the "program" column "Windows Server Active Directory Migration Tool (ADMT)". Then in the "actions" column click on "join" to join the program. If you do not see "join" but rather you see "quit", then you are already able to download ADMT. You will now be able to download the ADMT update. To download the ADMT update click on "Windows Server Active Directory Migration Tool (ADMT)". On the arriving page you will see a link for both ADMT and PES.

Click on "Active Directory Migration Tool (ADMT) QFE – x86" to go to the download section for ADMT

Click on "Password Export Server (PES) – x64" to go to the download section for PES.
