Why each option

To remotely access a user's computer and review Outlook settings, a technician should use Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) as it provides a graphical interface to control the remote machine.

AVPN

A VPN (Virtual Private Network) provides secure network connectivity to a private network but does not inherently offer remote desktop control.

BRDPCorrect

Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) allows a technician to establish a graphical remote desktop session to a user's Windows computer, providing full control of the desktop environment to review and modify Outlook settings as if they were physically present.

CRMM

RMM (Remote Monitoring and Management) is a suite of tools for managing multiple endpoints and can include remote access, but RDP is the specific protocol used for graphical remote desktop control in many RMM solutions for Windows.

DSSH

SSH (Secure Shell) provides a secure command-line interface for remote access, which is suitable for server management but not for graphically interacting with a user's desktop application like Outlook.
