What are some of the execution policies that Windows has in place to protect PowerShell against malicious users? (Select two.) Restricted and Selective Selective and AllInclusive DigitallySigned and AllSigned AllSigned and RemoteSigned Restricted and Unrestricted
AllSigned and RemoteSigned Restricted and Unrestricted EXPLANATION By default, PowerShell uses execution policies to prevent you from running scripts. In fact, the default configuration prevents you from running any scripts at all. There are four execution policies you need to be familiar with. The first one is Restricted. This means no script can run regardless of where it came from or its digital signature. This policy only allows individual cmdlets. The next execution policy is AllSigned, which allows scripts to be run if they're digitally signed by a trusted publisher. You can also use the RemoteSigned execution policy, which allows remotely signed scripts to be run. But note that any scripts downloaded from the internet must be digitally signed by a trusted publisher. Any scripts that you create locally don't need to be signed and are allowed to run. The final execution policy you should be familiar is called Unrestricted. It allows any script to run, regardless of where it came from.

You have 400 Windows 10 workstations and a Windows Server Update Service (WSUS) in your office. Which option would you use to stop the workstations in your organization from using Microsoft's servers for system updates? Allow downloads from other PCs Pause updates for up to 35 days Limit bandwidth for downloads Download updates over metered connections
Allow downloads from other PCs EXPLANATION You can get your updates from Microsoft directly. But you can also get updates from other workstations on your network that have already downloaded that same update. By default, Allow downloads from other PCs is turned on. The remaining options may pause or delay updates, but they do not direct the workstation to get the updates without going to Microsoft. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.1 Windows Updates

You install a new graphics application on your Windows machine. During installation, the computer reboots, but hangs during startup. Pressing F8 has no effect. To fix your computer so it will start, what should you try first? Roll back to the latest display adapter driver. Boot from the installation disc and restore the system using a system image. Boot into Safe Mode and uninstall the application. Boot from the installation disc and restore to a restore point.
Boot from the installation disc and restore to a restore point. EXPLANATION To undo changes made to applications, system settings, or drivers, you can restore the system to a restore point. You can restore to a restore point from within Windows, from within Safe Mode, or from the Windows installation disc. If you cannot boot the system either to the desktop or Safe Mode, boot to the Windows installation disc. In this scenario, you cannot boot into Safe Mode because Microsoft removed the option to press F8, and your computer will not start boot to Windows. Restoring to a restore point is faster than doing a restore to a system image, so you should try the restore point first. Rolling back to the latest display adapter driver will not help because the graphics application installation did not change your driver. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.3 System Restore
You use a Windows 10 system with File History running. Currently, File History is configured to save copies of files every hour. However, you've been assigned to work on a high-profile project, and you would like File History to save copies of files every 15 minutes. What should you do? (Select two. Each answer is part of the complete solution.) In Control Panel, click System and Security > System > System Protection. Click Advanced settings and then set Save copies of files to Every 15 minutes. Under Protection Settings, click Configure and then set the schedule to Every 15 minutes. In Control Panel, click System and Security > File History. Under Protection Settings, click Create and then set the schedule to Every 15 minutes.
Click Advanced settings and then set Save copies of files to Every 15 minutes. In Control Panel, click System and Security > File History EXPLANATION To configure how often File History saves copies of files, launch Control Panel and click System and Security > File History. Then click Advanced settings and set Save copies of files to the frequency desired. In this example, you would select Every 15 minutes. File History in Windows is independent of System Protection restore points. Therefore, it cannot be managed using Advanced system settings. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.4 Backup

What is it called when the hard drive light on your PC is staying on constantly, and the applications have slowed down significantly? Disk crash Page file Swapping Disk thrashing
Disk Trashing EXPLANATION Disk thrashing can be caused by too many applications loaded on the system. The hard disk light stays on constantly, and the applications running on the system slow down to a crawl. If the system has inadequate RAM installed, the CPU spends all its time constantly swapping data between the system RAM and the paging file on disk. This condition gets so bad that the CPU can't do any useful work. A page files is used to migrate unused data from RAM to the hard disk, thereby making more physical RAM available for active applications or data. Swapping is the process of moving data from virtual memory to a page file or vice versa. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 11.6 Windows Optimization

You manage a Windows system that is a member of a Workgroup. The computer is shared by three users. Each user has a standard user account. Mary is one of the three users of this computer. She wants to access the computer using a Remote Desktop connection. How do you allow Remote Desktop access for Mary while granting her the least amount of privileges possible? Make Mary's user account a member of the Remote Desktop Users group. Make Mary's user account a member of the Administrators group. Grant Mary's user account the Access this computer from the network user right. Grant Mary's user account the Impersonate a client after authentication user right.
Make Mary's user account a member of the Remote Desktop Users group. EXPLANATION By default, members of the Administrators group can connect to a computer remotely. To allow other users to access the remote client, make user accounts members of the Remote Desktop Users group. You can also grant the user the Allow Log through Remote Desktop Services user right. This right is configured for members of the Administrators and Remote Desktop Users groups. If you make Mary a member of the Administrators group, this will allow remote desktop access, but this action also gives her too many privileges on the computer. By default, everyone has the Access this computer from the network user right. While this right is required to use Remote Desktop, the right by itself does not allow Remote Desktop.

You run a regular file backup on your Windows 10 computer every Friday night, which also includes a system image backup. System Protection has been enabled for all drives on the system. On Wednesday, you receive a new version of a graphic editing application that you use regularly. You install the new application, but you find that the application does not work properly. What can you do to get things back to normal as quickly as possible? Select restore for the original application from the Backup and Restore console. In the Backup and Restore console, start a system image recovery. Uninstall the application. Reinstall the original application from the installation discs. Use System Restore to revert to a restore point before you installed the application.
Use System Restore to revert to a restore point before you installed the application. EXPLANATION Use System Restore to revert to a previous restore point. Reverting to a previous restore point removes any applications that have been installed and replaces any applications that have been deleted since the restore point was created. Restoring the entire computer using system image recovery would work, but would require too much time. Uninstalling the new application and reinstalling the old application would require more time than just using System Restore. The Backup and Restore console does not list the applications installed on a system. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.3 System Restore
You have a Windows 10 computer configured with volumes C: and D:. You want to schedule backup jobs of the C: volume to include all user files on the C: volume as well as creating a system image of the C: volume.

To protect your system and the data on your Windows 10 computer, you use the Backup and Restore console to create a system image backup. While working with a file, you accidentally delete some of the data. You need to restore the older version of the file, but you cannot find any previous versions of the file. What should you do? (Select two. Each answer is part of the complete solution.) Use Windows Explorer to browse to and then copy the file. Attach the .vhd file created from the Backup and Restore console. Create a fresh restore point. Attach the .bak file created from the Backup and Restore console. Run System Restore and use a restore point to restore the data.
Attach the .vhd file created from the Backup and Restore console. Use Windows Explorer to browse to and then copy the file. EXPLANATION The Backup and Restore console creates system images in the .vhd format. To recover files from the .vhd file: 1. Attach (mount) the .vhd file so that it displays as a disk and can have a drive letter assignment. 2. Browse to and then copy the files you need. Creating a new restore point will take a snapshot of the file, but it will not include the lost data. Restore points include shadow copies of user data files on protected volumes. However, restoring to a restore point will not restore or modify user data files. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.5 Recovery
Why is command history so useful in PowerShell? Because it allows you to use the up arrow key to select a previously used command instead of retyping it. Because it allows you to use either side arrow key to select a previously used command instead of retyping it. Because it pulls up the entire history of commands ever used on the system, allowing you to search through them. Because it pulls up the entire history of PowerShell since its creation, giving more understanding of its functions to new users.
Because it allows you to use the up arrow key to select a previously used command instead of retyping it. EXPLANATION Command history allows you to pull up a previously used command.

You have recently made some changes to your Windows system. Things seemed to run fine for several days. Today, however, your computer has started to be unstable. Shortly after you log on on, the system crashes and hangs. Which of the following will most likely correct the problem in the least amount of time? Use previous versions to recover corrupted system files. Boot to the installation disc and use Startup Repair. Boot into Safe Mode and restore to a restore point. Boot to the installation disc and use System Image Recovery.
Boot into Safe Mode and restore to a restore point. EXPLANATION Try restoring the system to a restore point. System changes made since the restore point was taken are undone. Applications, device drivers, and patches will no longer be applied. Using a restore point is faster than trying other recovery options from the installation disc. Restoring the entire system would only be necessary if a restore point did not work. Previous versions (also called shadow copies) only takes snapshots of files and folders to protect against accidental deletion or modification of user data files. Previous versions won't resolve problems with system files. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.3 System Restore
One of the users you support, VKumar, has just turned on File History and selected the internal D: drive as the location to which his files will be copied. By default, which directory does File History copy files from to save on the D: drive? C:\Users\VKumar C:\Users\VKumar\Profile C:\Users\VKumar\Libraries C:\Users\Profile\VKumar
C:\Users\VKumar EXPLANATION By default, File History makes backup copies of the files associated with the user's profile, which by default are found in the C:\Users\[username] directory. So the files in the C:\Users\VKumar folder will be copied to the drive that is selected for File History. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.4 Backup
While managing the available memory for applications on your Windows system, you discover that the paging file is set below the recommended size. Which answer is a common recommendation for setting the size of the paging file? Configure the paging file equal to the amount of physical RAM. Configure the paging file to three times the amount of physical RAM. Configure the paging file as large as possible. Configure the paging file to one and a half to two times the amount of physical RAM.
Configure the paging file to one and a half to two times the amount of physical RAM. EXPLANATION Unless you are running applications that require large amounts of paging file space, the optimal setting for a virtual memory swap file size is about one and a half to two times larger than the physical RAM in the computer. As the size of the paging file exceeds this threshold, the system spends more and more time swapping memory data in and out of the paging file. Eventually, this becomes more than is made available to the user to accomplish tasks. This condition is known as disk thrashing. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 11.6 Windows Optimization

Your Windows system has two volumes defined. The C: volume contains the Windows system and is formatted with NTFS. The D: volume is formatted with FAT32. Which action must you take to create a system image backup with the D: volume as the destination? Create the WindowsImageBackup folder on the D: volume. Install an external USB hard disk to store the system image. Run wbadmin start backup -backuptarget:c: Convert the D: drive to NTFS.
Convert the D: drive to NTFS EXPLANATION You need to convert the D: volume to NTFS. You are not able to save a system image to a non-NTFS volume. You can run the wbadmin command to create scheduled system image backups. But in this scenario, it should use -backuptarget:d: to specify the D: volume as the destination. Although an external NTFS hard disk could be install, it is not necessary because you can convert the FAT32 volume to NTFS. This is faster and cheaper than purchasing a new external USB hard disk. You do not create the WindowsImageBackup folder manually. The WindowsImageBackup folder is created for system images and is found in the root of the backup destination.

Your Windows computer has system protection enabled on the system drive. By default, restore points are only created when a Windows update occurs. In the last week, since the last Windows update, you have installed a video editing application that you use every day. Today you installed a new sound card with the driver that came with it. Your system started behaving erratically after you rebooted. You tried updating to the latest driver for the sound card, but that didn't help. So you used System Restore to get your computer back to the state it was in before you installed the sound card. After you reboot your computer, you realize you have to install your video editing application again. Which action would have helped you avoid having to reinstall the application? Rolling back to the previous version of the sound card driver instead of using System Restore. Creating a manual restore point just before installing the sound card. Using the installation disk to restore a system image. Rebooting using the Last Known Good Configuration instead of using System Restore. Using the installation disk to run the Startup Repair option.
Creating a manual restore point just before installing the sound card. EXPLANATION Creating a manual restore point just before installing the sound card would have preserved a copy of your system in a stable state and with an up-to-date configuration. Without this manual restore point, your latest restore point was created before the last Windows update, which happened before you installed the video editing software. Using the Last Known Good Configuration would only undo changes that have occurred since the last successful boot, which happened after you installed the sound card. Restoring to a system image would return you to the same state your machine was in when the restore point was created at the last Windows update. Startup Repair is a utility that tries to automatically fix problems that keep the system from booting. This includes repairing the boot configuration file or locating the operating system files on the hard disk. After trying to update the driver, rolling back to the previous version of the sound card driver would only return you to the problem that the first driver started.

You manage several Windows systems that are members of a domain. Your company uses Remote Assistance to help diagnose user desktop issues. All computers are configured to allow Remote Assistance. One day, you receive a Remote Assistance request from someone you don't know using an invitation file you created several weeks ago. What can you do to prevent this from happening again? (Select two.) Enable the Allow remote connections to this computer option. Increase the timeout for invitation files. Require a password on invitation files. Create a rule in Windows Firewall to block Remote Assistance. Decrease the timeout for invitation files.
Decrease the timeout for invitation files. Require a password on invitation files. EXPLANATION To help control Remote Assistance access, require a password on invitation files and decrease the time an invitation file is still valid. Increasing the timeout value for invitation files would make the problem worse. Blocking Remote Assistance with the Windows Firewall would block all offers, including valid ones. Remote Desktop must be manually enabled on the Remote tab in System Properties. Configure Remote Desktop by selecting one of the following settings: - Enable the Allow remote connections to this computer option. - Enable the Allow connections only from computers running Remote Desktop with Network Level Authentication option. This is the most secure method for Remote Desktop connections. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 11.8 Remote Desktop and Remote Assistance

For several months, your Windows computer acted like a server in the workgroup. It was optimized to share files and folders to the other computers. You no longer need the computer to act like a server. Now, you want the computer to focus on applications. After installing the applications, you believe the computer is not reacting quickly enough while using the applications. You know the machine has enough video memory and physical memory to handle the applications. What should you do? Configure System Protection settings. Edit the Paging File settings. Configure Visual Effects settings. Edit the Processor Scheduling settings.
Edit the Processor Scheduling settings. EXPLANATION Configure Processor Scheduling to adjust the response times of interactive applications or background applications running as services. In this scenario, you should adjust the Processor Scheduling for programs. This option gives the active application the best response time and the greatest share of available resources. Use the Visual Effects settings to affect the appearance of window borders, window contents, mouse pointers, and text. If the system has a slow processor, low memory, or not enough video memory, using Visual Effects can make the system respond slowly. System Protection settings enable backups of system files and user data files. A paging file is an area on the hard disk that Windows uses as if it were RAM.

Your Windows computer has two hard drives, both formatted with NTFS. You have enabled system protection on both disks. How do you delete all restore points while keeping system protection enable on both drives? Run Disk Cleanup and clean up system files. Edit the System Protection configuration in System Properties, and turn off protection for both drives. Open System Restore and select all the restore points to delete. Edit the System Protection configuration in System Properties, and delete the restore points.
Edit the System Protection configuration in System Properties, and delete the restore points. EXPLANATION To delete all restore points, open System Properties and then select the System Protection tab. Next, select Configure > Delete. Deleting restore points using the Delete feature keeps system protection enabled on the disks. Disabling system protection also deletes all restore points, but it removes system protection from the disks. Use Disk Cleanup to delete all but the last restore point. You cannot delete restore points while viewing the restore points from within System Restore. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.3 System Restore
You have configured scheduled backups in the Backup and Restore console to take a backup each week. You save the backups to a network location. You find that backups are not being completed because the destination computer is asleep when the schedule time starts. The destination computer is not waking up to perform the backup. How can you make sure the backup destination device is awake and available? Configure the power plan settings to wake the computer for scheduled tasks. Edit the network adapter settings and enable Wake on LAN (WoL). Edit the backup task in Task Scheduler. Edit the schedule settings in the Backup and Restore console.
Edit the backup task in Task Scheduler EXPLANATION In the Backup and Restore console, you can edit settings for the backup such as the destination, what files to back up, and when to perform the backup. For more advanced settings, you can edit the task in the Task Scheduler. For example, you can configure the computer to wake when the task needs to run, configure the backup to not run when on battery power, run only when the computer is idle, or require that a network connection exists before the backup starts. You can also configure what to do when the backup is interrupted or cannot be completed, such as configure the backup to run as soon as possible or wait until the next scheduled time. The Wake on LAN (WoL) feature on the network adapter allows a signal received over the network to wake the computer. This feature is used by management stations to wake the computer to perform maintenance or remote tasks. Power plan settings control what to do when power is low or when the system is idle, but do not prevent performing scheduled tasks. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.4 Backup
You are supporting a Windows 10 computer that has two volumes: - The C: drive is the system drive with user profiles and individual user files. - The D: drive holds data files common to all users. System Protection has been configured as follows: - A system image backup has been created that includes both the C: and D: drives. - Regular backups are scheduled to back up all user libraries. The scheduled backup includes a system image. - System Restore has been used to take a snapshot. A user has edited and saved a file on the D: drive. The user doesn't like the changes and wants to revert to a previous version of the file. The user goes to the Previous Versions tab of the file and sees nothing listed. To avoid this situation in the future, you must ensure that users can revert files on the D: drive to earlier versions of the file from the Previous Versions tab. What should you do? (Select two. Each answer is a complete solution.) Create a system image backup. Enable System Protection for the D: drive. Change the Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) to Disabled. Enable BackupGlobalCatalog files. Modify the backup settings in Backup and Restore to include the D: drive.
Enable System Protection for the D: drive. Modify the backup settings in Backup and Restore to include the D: drive. EXPLANATION To make sure previous version of files are available in the Previous Versions tab of a file or folder, complete one of the following options: - Enable system protection on the D: drive. By default, System Protection settings are enabled on the system drive, but must be enabled on other drives. When enabled, the System Protection settings determine what types of files can be restored from previous versions. - Use Backup and Restore settings to include the D: drive. The backups will include the specified files and folders in the .zip file. The Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) manages and implements shadow copies as seen in the Previous Versions tab of a file or folder. A system image backup is intended to restore a system back to its previous state after a hardware or system failure. The files in the system image will not show up in the Previous Versions tab of a file or folder. A system image is created in the WindowsImageBackup folder. This folder found at the root of the backup destination drive. It contains the following: - The folder named Catalog, containing the GlobalCatalog and BackupGlobalCatalog files to track the backup image versions. - A folder named Backup whose name includes the year, month, day, and time. This folder contains the .vhd file. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.5 Recovery
To provide additional storage space, you have added a second internal hard drive to your Windows 10 system. For the past several weeks, you have created and changed many files stored on the new hard drive. One of the files on the new drive has become corrupted. You want to recover as much as you can by reverting to a previous version of that file. After viewing the file properties, you notice that no previous versions are available. Which action must you take to ensure that you can revert files to previous versions on the new hard drive of your Windows 10 computer? Restore the system from a restore point. Enable System Protection on the new hard drive. Delete all but the last restore point. Create a restore point.
Enable System Protection on the new hard drive EXPLANATION On a Windows 10 computer, you must enable System Protection on the new drive. When enabled, the settings in System Protection determine what types of files can be restored from previous versions. Creating a restore point creates previous version of files only on drives that have System Protection enabled. Restoring the system from a restore point will not restore a previous version of the file. Deleting previous restore points creates more disk space. Subsequent restore points will delete earlier restore points when disk space is low. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.5 Recovery
You are supporting a Windows 10 computer that is used by three different users. The computer has the following volumes with default System Protection settings: - C: (System drive with user profiles and individual user files) - E: (Data files common to all users) Which option is the easiest way to protect the data on both volumes with restore points? Enable system protection for the E: volume. Use the Backup and Restore console to enable file restore points. Enable system protection for the C: and E: volumes. Use System Restore to enable the restore points.
Enable system protection for the E: volume. EXPLANATION You only need to enable system protection for the E: volume. By default, System Protection settings are enabled on the Windows 10 system volume, but must be enabled on other volumes before restore points for files are created. If system protection is enabled, Windows automatically creates shadow copies of files that have been modified since the last restore point was created. Use System Restore to restore system settings from a previously created restore point. Use the Backup and Restore console to create system image backups and file backups.

What are some security measures Microsoft has implemented to protect your system against users trying to use PorwerShell for malicious purposes? File extension, script's full path, and execution policies Restricted and Unrestricted execution policy options Restricted, AllSigned, RemoteSigned, and Unrestricted File name and script's partial path (beginning or ending)
File extension, script's full path, and execution policies EXPLANATION Microsoft has implemented several security measures to prevent users from using PowerShell maliciously. The first of these security measures is the file extension itself. If you go to where a script file is located and double-click it, it won't immediately launch and run on PowerShell. Instead, by default, the .ps1 file extension is associated with Notepad. If you double-click a script file, instead of running, it opens in Notepad. The second is that you can't run scripts from the shell by typing the script's file name. You must specify the full path to the script. This is even if you're on the same directory where the script resides. The third security measure is that, by default, PowerShell uses execution policies to prevent you from running scripts. In fact, the default configuration prevents you from running any scripts at all. There are four execution policies you need to be familiar with. The first one is Restricted. This means no script can run regardless of where it came from or its digital signature. This policy only allows individual cmdlets. The next execution policy is AllSigned, which allows scripts to be run if they're digitally signed by a trusted publisher. You can also use the RemoteSigned execution policy, which allows remotely signed scripts to be run. But note that any scripts downloaded from the internet must be digitally signed by a trusted publisher. Any scripts that you create locally don't need to be signed and are allowed to run. The final execution policy you should be familiar is called Unrestricted. It allows any script to run, regardless of where it came from.

Your Windows system is a member of a domain. Windows Update settings are being controlled through Group Policy. How can you determine whether a specific security update from Windows Update is installed on the computer? Run the netsh winhttp import proxy source command. Check the Local Security Policy. Go to Programs and Features in Control Panel. Run the wuauclt.exe /listupdates command.
Go to Programs and Features in Control Panel. EXPLANATION To check a computer for a specific update, you click the View update history link in Windows Update. You can also click View installed updates in Programs and Features (both available through the Control Panel). The Wuauclt.exe command is the client component for Windows Update. One of the functions of this program is to check for updates using settings configured locally or through Group Policy. You can run the wuauclt /detectnow command to force the computer to check for updates immediately. However, there is no option for seeing which updates have been installed. The netsh winhttp import proxy source command can be used to import Internet Explorer's Internet Options settings directly. The Local Security Policy shows you the update settings that would be controlled locally. In this scenario, because Group Policy is being used, these settings would tell you nothing about the configuration of the computer. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.2 Advanced Windows Updates

Enable system protection on D: Manually create a restore point on C: Manually create a restore point on D: Increase the amount of disk space reserved for restore points on C: Delete old restore points on C:
Increase the amount of disk space reserved for restore points on C: EXPLANATION By increasing the amount of disk space reserved for restore points on C:, you increase the number of restore points that you can choose from should an issue arise. Deleting older restore points for C: would temporarily increase the amount of space available for future restore points, but it doesn't provide a long-term solution. Manually creating restore points on C: isn't necessary unless a significant system change is about to take place, such as installing a new application. In older versions of Windows, it was advisable to enable system protection on secondary hard disks because restore points were used to store previous versions of files on that disk. In Windows 8 and later, file versions are handled by File History. File History works independently of system protection. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.3 System Restore

How do you increase the size of the paging file on your Windows system? Modify the Processor Scheduling settings. Modify the Disk Thrashing settings. Modify the System Protection settings. Modify the Advanced system settings.
Modify the Advanced system settings. EXPLANATION Edit Advanced system settings to increase the size of a paging file. The paging file is an area on the hard disk that Windows uses as if it were RAM. The paging file is used to move unused data in RAM to the hard disk, thereby making more space available in memory for other running applications or data. Processor Scheduling determines the response times of interactive applications or background applications running as services. System Protection settings enable backups of system files and user data files. If too many applications are loaded on the system, the CPU spends all its time swapping data between the system RAM and the paging file on disk.

Which action can you take to restore the folder and its contents as quickly as possible? Mount the .vhd file in the backup and then copy the folder to the drive. In the Backup and Restore console, click Restore my files. Browse to and restore the folder. Restart the computer from the installation disc and restore the system from the system image backup. Revert the system to a restore point prior to the folder's deletion.
Mount the .vhd file in the backup and then copy the folder to the drive. EXPLANATION You can restore individual files and folders from a system image backup by mounting the .vhd file in Disk Management. Then you use Windows Explorer to browse to and copy the file or the folder. This is faster than doing a complete system image restore. Restoring to a restore point does not revert to previous versions of files. Instead, use the Previous Versions tab to restore to previous versions of files or folders. The Restore my files option only recovers files that are part of scheduled backups. It cannot be used to restore individual files or folders from a system image backup or system image. Because you do not see previous versions listed for the drive, you can assume that restore points are not enabled for the drive. In addition, file backups do not have a copy of the folder because those copies would be listed on the Previous Versions tab even if restore points had not been enabled.

EXPLANATION The following are true regarding restore points: - Restore points only works on New Technology File System (NTFS) partitions. - Restore points do not protect user data files. - It is possible to create a restore point manually. - System Restore is not enabled automatically but can be easily enabled by a user. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.3 System Restore
You are supporting a Windows 10 computer that has the following volumes: - The C: drive is the system drive with user profiles and individual user files. - The D: drive holds data files common to all users. System Protection has been configured as follows: - A system image backup has been created that includes both the C: and D: drives. - Regular backups are scheduled to back up all user libraries. The scheduled backup includes a system image. - System Restore has been used to take a snapshot. A user has edited and saved a file on the D: drive. The user doesn't like the changes and wants to revert to a previous version of the file. The user goes to the Previous Versions tab of the file and sees nothing listed. How can you help the user restore the previous version of the file? Restore the system to the restore point. Enable system protection on the D: drive. Restore the file from the system image. Use the Backup and Restore console to browse for the file from the scheduled backup.
Restore the file from the system image. EXPLANATION In this scenario, the only option to get the file back is to use the copy of the file included in the system image backup. However, instead of restoring to the system image, you should mount the system image and browse to the file you want to restore. Any file included in a snapshot will show up on the Previous Versions tab. Because the file does not show up, System Protection probably isn't enabled for the D: drive. Enabling system protection will help you recover previous versions in the future, but it will not help you get back the previous version of the file. Restoring to a restore point restores system settings, but does not affect files. Use Previous Versions (if available) to revert to earlier versions of a file. Any file included in a scheduled backup will show up on the Previous Versions tab. Because the file does not show up, the scheduled backups do not include the file (backups do not include data on the D: drive). If the file does not show up on the Previous Versions tab, it also won't exist when browsing using the Backup and Restore console. REFERENCES TestOut Client Pro - 12.5 Recovery
As part of your regular system maintenance, you install the latest operating system updates on your Windows 10 computer.

Use the Previous Versions feature to restore the system registry settings. Restore the system using a system image. Restore the system using a restore point.
Restore the system using a restore point. EXPLANATION Use System Restore to reset your computer's configuration to a point in time when the operating system was stable. System restore rolls back operating system configuration settings, drivers, and applications, but they do not affect user data files. Restoring to a system image would work, but this would take more time than using a restore point. Restore previous versions is a Windows 7 feature used to restore previous versions of files. This includes things like reverting back to a version of a file that you have modified. It has been replaced by the File History feature in Windows 8 and Windows 10.
