Hi,
There are a few things here:
- When you install 2016 by default I think you get the core experience without a GUI. That won't include Narrator either as Narrator requires the full desktop experience, you can change the option during installation but if you just skipped past it you will get the default.
- Always only download the OS images from MS directly as they will be most up to date.
- I would recommend Server 2019 for new deployments.
Thanks.
Andrew.

Hi Mattias,
I think it was more of an oversight at the time. I have expressed my concern regarding the audio service issue. I hope they do fix it. Once you are installed you will be able to do everything you need to.
Best,
Billy

It should give you a choice during the initial install as to where or not you want core or desktop experience. My ISO's do this.
Best,

Hi Mattias,
The issue is that Server 2016 and 2019 doesn't run the audio service automatically. This is why you aren't getting any sounds. Most servers would never need this so they choose to leave it off. Starting this service will need some sighted assistance and then you can start Narrator. To start the service, go to Service via run by typing services.mmc then look for windows audio service. Then go to its properties and you will need to set it to automatic then hit the start button.
Hope this helps,
Billy
