Why each option

Domain membership in Windows 7 is configured through the System Properties dialog, specifically on the Computer Name tab.

ASystem PropertiesCorrect

System Properties (accessed by right-clicking Computer and selecting Properties, then 'Change settings') contains the Computer Name tab where a technician can click 'Change' to join the computer to a domain. This is the authoritative location in Windows 7 for domain and workgroup membership configuration.

BWindows Defender

Windows Defender is a security and anti-malware tool and does not contain any settings for joining a computer to a domain.

CNetwork and Sharing Center

Network and Sharing Center manages network adapter settings, sharing options, and firewall profiles but does not provide domain join functionality.

DDevice Manager

Device Manager is used to manage hardware drivers and devices and has no role in configuring domain membership.
