I need a Windows 8(not 8.1) ISO

I'm currently working on a family member's PC. I need a Windows 8 ISO to create recovery media so I can wipe the system without having to re-install windows. it runs windows 8 just fine, but upgrading past that (to like say 8.1) bricks the computer and its a bad time. the windows 10 auto upgrades were a nightmare, from what i'm told.

TL;DR I need Windows 8 ISO not Windows 8.1

Thanks

There are no Windows 8 ISO downloads from Microsoft; only 8.1.
