SUMMARY
Hi,
going to the official 8.7.0 download page 
https://download.kde.org/stable/digikam/8.7.0/
the digiKam-8.7.0-Qt6-Win64.tar.xz download option is missing this time.
This was always present in previous versions like here: https://download.kde.org/stable/digikam/8.6.0/digiKam-8.6.0-Qt6-Win64.tar.xz
And even in the 8.8. weekly Pre-Release Snapshots this file is present like here:
https://files.kde.org/digikam/digiKam-8.8.0-20250714T170132-Qt6-Win64.tar.xz

According to the documentation a portable archive for windows should be present
https://www.digikam.org/download/binary/#Windows

Please provide such a version for the stable 8.7.0 release again and upload it to the download page.
Thanks a lot.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go To https://download.kde.org/stable/digikam/8.7.0/
2. file digiKam-8.7.0-Qt6-Win64.tar.xz is not there

EXPECTED RESULT
I would love to have a precompiled 8.7.0 windows version as in the past.

Yes, the Qt5 and Qt6 Windows portable tarballs are missing. I don't know why there are not be uploaded.

I created a new KDE admin task with the missing files to publish at the right place:
