This was an arseache to find, so I'm backing it up here.
It should work with any RTL8192EU-based USB WLAN, and trust me... there's a ridiculous amount of these still being produced. Note that RTL8192E and RTL8192CU aren't the same thing, I don't know the technical differences.
Dunno if automatic detection will work in devmgmt.msc, I used the 'have disc' method personally with a rather common variant, a TP-LINK TL-WN823N v2 card. TP-LINK official site states their driver supports Vista (both x64/x86) but actually omits the Vista ones specifically, while XP x64's is included, interestingly. Yeah...
Anyway, the download is attached. The driver itself is dated late 2014, and states it was only intended for 'WHQL testing' and was never actually meant to be released to any of the redistributors of this chipset, but made its way around anyway presumably through some redistributor. It was an absolute pain to find either way (uniquely, the INF has _Vista in its name, which doesn't seem to be present on the 'officially released' drivers).
And you thought getting this junk to work on Linux was bad... at least the drivers are easy to find for it lol.
