Question

Your network contains an Active Directory named contoso.com. The domain contains two computers named Computer1 and Computer2 that run Windows 10. Folder Redirection is configured for a domain user named User1. The AppData\Roaming folder and the Desktop folder are redirected to a network share. User1 signs in to Computer1 and performs the following tasks:

  • Configures screen saver to start after five minutes of inactivity
  • Modifies the default save location for Microsoft Word
  • Creates a file named File1.docx on the desktop
  • Modifies the desktop background

You need to identify what will be retained when User1 signs in to Computer2. What should you identify?

Options

  • AFile1.docx and the desktop background only
  • BFile1.docx, the screen saver settings, the desktop background, and the default save location for Word
  • CFile1.docx only
  • DFile1.docx, the desktop background, and the default save location for Word only

Explanation

User selected Desktop background, user nominated default word save location and user screen saver settings are all stored in under the user based registry (ie NTuser.dat) NTUSER.DAT is not stored under the user APPDATA folder but under the users local profile. Roaming profiles are not stated as being enabled in domain so must assume they are not active and therefore NTUser.dat will not roam to server and to other logged on computers. That means user registry settings will not move from one computer to another when user logs onto another As stated the desktop folder is being redirected and applied to domain user named user1 which must have been done using AD Group Policies. The Redirected Folder Group Policy will apply to both Computer1 and Computer2 at logon time. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/folder-redirection/folder-redirection-rup-
