Why download 15 GB for 3 iso when exist the SVF files?! but... not everyone has the fiber optic thanks, but I download only the standard version ... for the rest I use the SVF files
I think a huge number of people still do not "Get" the whole SVF thing, they are usually the ones which will spend 45 min. complaining they have no time to spare to learn.
I just tested this version as VM - en_windows_server_2016_x64_dvd_9327751.iso - It is still RETAIL version. So none of the ISO posted here are RTM/VLSC. I was able to activate from the server manager by entering kms key and my local kms server was able to activate using MTK 2.6.1. I also installed all the windows update and bit defender updates and syspred so, I can use it for future deployments within my home lab.
This is the VLSC (VL) version of the iso you used: SW_DVD9_Win_Svr_STD_Core_and_DataCtr_Core_2016_64Bit_English_-2_MLF_X21-22843.ISO
