✍️ Sample MD-100 Questions & Answers

1. A Windows 10 PC receives an IP address in the 192.168.0.0/24 range. Which routing table entry routes traffic destined for all non-local addresses to the internet?
0.0.0.0/0 via the default gateway

The default route 0.0.0.0/0 matches all destinations not covered by more specific routes and forwards traffic to the default gateway.

2. What does the 'Keep my files' option do when using Reset this PC in Windows 10?
Removes installed apps and settings while preserving personal files in user folders

'Keep my files' removes installed applications and reverts settings to defaults while leaving documents, pictures, and other personal files in place.

3. A Windows 10 device managed by Intune needs to have a specific registry key set that is not available in standard Intune profiles. What is the BEST approach?
Create a custom OMA-URI configuration profile

Custom OMA-URI profiles in Intune allow administrators to configure settings using Windows MDM CSP paths, enabling registry-level configurations not exposed in the GUI.

4. When chkdsk is run on the active system drive (C:) while Windows is running, what happens?
chkdsk schedules itself to run automatically at the next system restart

Because the system volume is locked by Windows when in use, chkdsk schedules the scan to run before Windows loads on the next restart.

5. A drive shows as 'RAW' in Disk Management after a power failure. What is the most likely cause?
The file system is corrupted or unrecognized

A RAW file system status means Windows cannot recognize or read the file system, usually due to corruption.

6. After enabling BitLocker on a Windows 10 drive, the recovery key is saved to Azure AD. Where can an administrator retrieve it if needed?
Azure AD Portal > Devices > BitLocker Keys

BitLocker recovery keys escrowed to Azure AD are viewable in the Azure AD portal under Devices, then selecting the specific device and its BitLocker Keys tab.
