    Hi @Fahrid F ,

    The administrative templates you've linked also apply & work for Windows Server 2016, if you want the latest available administrative templates you can find them over here:

    If you use a central store to manage your administrative templates (.admx) you can follow the steps over here:

    The Central Store

    If you don't use a central store, you can follow the steps over here:
