FC0-U61 · Question #144
Which of the following technologies would allow a user to run multiple operating systems at the same time on a single computer?
The correct answer is C. Virtualization software. Virtualization software enables a single physical computer to host and run multiple isolated operating systems simultaneously, each within its own virtual machine. This technology leverages hypervisors to allocate hardware resources to these virtual environments.

Why each option
Virtualization software enables a single physical computer to host and run multiple isolated operating systems simultaneously, each within its own virtual machine. This technology leverages hypervisors to allocate hardware resources to these virtual environments.
Telepresence refers to technologies that allow a person to feel present at a remote location, not running multiple OSes.
Cloud-based software runs on remote servers over the internet and does not directly enable multiple OSes on a local machine.
Virtualization software, also known as a hypervisor, allows a physical computer to host multiple virtual machines (VMs). Each VM can run its own operating system independently and concurrently, sharing the physical hardware resources of the host machine.
Productivity software includes applications like word processors or spreadsheets, which run on an existing OS, not host multiple OSes.
