In Windows 2016 Server set IE11 security to meduim

I have a windows 2016 server with IE11. I need to set the security to medium ( Also need to set the privacy to medium. I have a Windows 2012 server with this configuration. The same settings in Windows 2016 security is not still letting me have a medium setting ( on the slidebar)
Also, I don't see a slidebar on privacy to select medium
Can you please help me in how I can get this ( This is part of an application installation)

Not clear which zone you are trying to set that for?
check whether the policy you have applies to the 2016

My question specific to IE11 on Windows 2016 server   ( versus Windows 2012 server)

Is that not possible to reduce the security to medium

Also,  I am looking for IE privacy setting to be meduim
If you open up GPMC from server 2016, explore the user or computer administrative templates, internet explorer and the options you wish to set are not there, you would need to use the registry key push method to set your prefereces
i.e. capture the user registry key for Internet explorer.
Go through the Internet options and make the changes you want,
then capture the new registry key set for internet explorer
compare the difference and push the difference through USer or computer GPO as applicable. (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE for the computer or HKEY_Current_user for the user)

The setting change you are after is for which zone?
Usually the internet zone is medium-high.
