I want to avoid IIS and asp.net version disclosure during HTTP 404 not found error response in c#.

What I have tried:

I have set enableversionheader as false in the config file. Added URL Rewrite
<rewrite>
        <outboundRules>
            <rule name="ChangeServerHeader">
                <match serverVariable="RESPONSE_SERVER" pattern=".*" />
                <action type="Rewrite" value="Private Server" />
            </rule>
        </outboundRules>
    </rewrite>

Also in the global.asax file have set code to remove the server header
protected void Application_PreSendRequestHeaders(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
     var app = sender as HttpApplication;
     if (app != null && app.Context != null)
     {
          app.Context.Response.Headers.Remove("Server");
      }
}
