Windows ADK on Server 2016 – Unsigned driver?

If anyone tries to install the new Microsoft ADK (for Windows 10 Version 1703 – 10.1.15063) on Windows server 2016, you receive the error that a driver is not digitally signed. Well, Microsoft drivers are not signed? Something is wrong…
Actually, according to this post, they really have a problem and there is a workaround with disabling the secure boot. But this is not recommended and is not aligned with best practices – so you don’t want to do it.
Anyway, this is the only way you can install ADK on server 2016 and I did it. I have removed the previous (broken) installation, disabled Secure boot and reinstalled ADK. After a successful installation, I reenabled Secure boot and things still went wrong. I was unable to mount ADK boot image (to use in SCCM or MDT). Well, in this post it is explained another workaround (yes, I know…). Set the registry as is explained and it should work. I just hope that all other functionalities in ADK now are working OK.
