• Question 442:

  A company would like to deploy baseline images to new computers as they are started up on the network. Which of the following boot processes should the company use for this task?

  A. ISO
  B. Secure
  C. USB
  D. PXE
  D. PXE

  ---

  Explanation

  PXE (Preboot Execution Environment) allows a computer to boot from a network server and install a system image remotely. It is commonly used for large-scale deployments because it eliminates the need for physical installation media.

  Option A: ISO, Incorrect. ISO files are used for manual installations, but they do not automate network deployments.

  Option B: Secure, Incorrect. There is no";secure boot proces"; option for automated deployments. Secure Boot is a security feature.

  Option C: USB, Incorrect. USB boot requires manual installation on each device, making it inefficient for mass deployment.

• Question 443:

  A technician needs to implement password requirements that apply to all domain-joined computers.

  Which of the following commands should the technician most likely run?

  A. gpugdate
  B. devmgmt
  C. regedit
  D. resmon
  A. gpugdate

  ---

  Explanation

  The correct command is gpupdate (Option A), which refreshes Group Policy settings. To implement password requirements across domain-joined computers, the policy would be set via Group Policy, and then running the gpupdate command

  ensures that the new settings are applied to all systems. devmgmt (Option B) opens Device Manager, which is unrelated to Group Policy. regedit (Option C) opens the Windows Registry Editor, which is not used for group- wide password

  policy settings.

  resmon (Option D) opens Resource Monitor, which helps monitor system resources, not Group Policy.

• Question 444:

  A user updates a mobile device's OS. A frequently used application becomes consistently unresponsive immediately after the device is launched. Which of the following troubleshooting steps should the user perform FIRST?

  A. Delete the application's cache.
  B. Check for application updates.
  C. Roll back the OS update.
  D. Uninstall and reinstall the application.
  B. Check for application updates.

  ---

  Explanation

  Checking for application updates is the first troubleshooting step that the user should perform, because the application may not be compatible with the new OS version and may need an update to fix the issue. Deleting the application's cache,

  rolling back the OS update, or uninstalling and reinstalling the application are possible solutions, but they are more time-consuming and disruptive than checking for updates.
