This is part "bump" and part assistance. You can at least get the Nexus 7 connected via ADB using these steps:

1. enable USB debugging
2. install the Android SDK (from Android's developer site)
3. from the SDK manager install the latest version of the USB driver too.
4. Make sure your Nexus 7 is hooked up.
5. Go into your device manager (Start > Control Panel > Device Manager)
6. navigate to the right Nexus device (not MTP in this case),
7. right click it,
8. click Update Device Drivers.
9. Choose your own driver manually.
10. When asked for a folder, navigate to C:\[your username]\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver
11. make sure searching in folders is checked
    

...that should at least get the ADB driver running. From there you can PUSH or PULL files or open the SHELL, but I don't know of a client-side file manager that makes those things easy yet. This is just one step of many, I bet...

2 things
Have you the latest win media player installed on PC? If not, update it.
Is n7 USB debugging on? If so, turn it off.
That should allow MTP to begin. If not, try the previous post

If your using a N or KN version of Windows 7, you can't use MTP. N and KN versions of Windows have media foundation and other media-specific features stripped from it; and MTP itself does not work.

If you are on such an OS, then this media pack may help:

I have the same issue. If I select PTP, the camera shows. Once I switch back to MTP, it goes away and no disks are displayed. In Device Manager I see Android Phone, I installed Google drivers and adb works. I have a Google Nexus also and is OK.

Anyone who found a fix for this? Couldn't get it to work on W7, on Windows 8 still no MTP. I can use it for debugging with the ADB, but everything I tried failed. Now I'm using AirDroid, but this option is the way slower.

Either the PDAnet or official Asus drivers work for me.

Here's the official documentation from Google for enabling this protocol.

"Transfer files through USB" (Google this** and click the link by support.google.com)

Relevant Info:

• On your device, make sure that the USB computer connection is set to “Media device (MTP).”
  • Go to Settings > Device > Storage. Then open Menu > USB computer connection.
    MTP should be selected by default, but you may have to uncheck MTP, check and uncheck Camera (PTP), and then recheck MTP.
