Explanation

The Backup Operators (D) group is specifically designed to allow members to back up and restore files regardless of file permissions, without granting full ownership or administrative rights. This is the principle of least privilege - giving only the access needed. Remote Desktop Users (A) only grants the ability to log in remotely and has no backup/restore rights. Power Users (B) have elevated but limited administrative rights, not specifically restore rights. Administrators (C) can restore files but also have full ownership and system control, which is far more access than needed for just file restoration.
