A technician works for a company that uses an application to track licensing information. The application runs in the background on the Windows 7 computers. A technician receives a call stating that the licensing tracking software is not running. Which of the following should the technician perform to ensure that the application is always running?

Question

Accepted Answer

C. Set the service to automatically start Background applications that must always be running are typically implemented as Windows services. In the Services management console (services.msc), the startup type can be set to 'Automatic', which causes Windows to start the service during the boot process without any user action, ensuring it is always running.

Answer

A. Keep Windows updated with the latest patches Applying Windows updates addresses security and stability patches but does not control whether a specific third-party service starts automatically.

Answer

B. Run the application in compatibility mode Compatibility mode adjusts how an application runs under newer OS versions; it does not affect whether the application or its service starts automatically at boot.

Answer

D. Install application in Windows XP mode Windows XP Mode is a virtualization feature for application compatibility on Windows 7 and does not resolve a service startup configuration issue.
