Question 1

A Windows 10 computer is connected to both a wired and wireless network. By default, which connection will Windows prefer for routing traffic?

Accepted Answer

Wired (Ethernet), as it has a lower metric by default

Answer

Windows assigns lower automatic interface metrics to Ethernet adapters compared to Wi-Fi, giving wired connections routing preference by default.

Question 2

Which Windows 10 tool allows administrators to create and apply local Group Policy settings specifically to non-administrator user accounts without affecting the admin account?

Accepted Answer

Local Group Policy Editor with multiple local GPOs (MLGPO)

Answer

Multiple Local Group Policy Objects (MLGPO) allow separate GPOs for Local Computer, Administrators, Non-Administrators, and specific users on a standalone machine.

Question 3

A Windows 10 device joined to an on-premises Active Directory domain fails to apply Group Policy. Which command forces an immediate refresh of all Group Policy settings?

Accepted Answer

gpupdate /force

Answer

gpupdate /force re-applies all Group Policy settings immediately, bypassing the normal background refresh interval and the change-detection optimization.

Question 4

Which Windows 10 feature uses machine learning and behavioral analysis to detect and block suspicious processes in real time, even for zero-day threats?

Accepted Answer

Windows Defender Antivirus cloud protection

Answer

Windows Defender Antivirus cloud-delivered protection uses Microsoft's Intelligent Security Graph with ML models to detect and block emerging zero-day threats in real time.

Question 5

A technician needs to resize a Windows 10 system volume without data loss. The 'Extend Volume' option in Disk Management is grayed out. What is the most likely reason?

Accepted Answer

There is no contiguous unallocated space immediately after the volume

Answer

Disk Management can only extend a volume using contiguous unallocated space that directly follows the partition; non-contiguous free space makes the option unavailable.
