Q: Which of the following folders is not found as part of a default user profile?
- Desktop
- My Music
- My Contacts
- AppData
A: My Contacts
Feedback: A typical user profile consists of the following folders, some of which are hidden, plus a hidden registry file: - AppData - Contacts - Desktop - Downloads - Favorites - Links - My Documents - My Music - My Pictures - My Videos - Saved Games - Searches

Q: On which tab of an Active Directory user’s account object would you configure a roaming profile path?
- Account
- Profile
- Environment
- Sessions
A: Profile
Feedback: To enable a user to access a roaming user profile rather than a local profile, you must open the users Properties sheet to the Profile tab and specify the location of the roaming profile in the Profile Path field.

Q: What is the name used for the file that contains a mandatory profile?
- Ntuser.dat
- Ntuser.man
- Ntuser.pro
- Ntuser.mdp
A: Ntuser.man
Feedback: To create a mandatory user profile, you rename the Ntuser.dat file in the folder containing the roaming profile to Ntuser.man. The Ntuser.dat file consists of the Windows 8.1 system registry settings that apply to the individual user account and contains the user environment settings, such as those controlling the appearance of the desktop.

Q: Your organization currently uses roaming profiles for all users. All users use Windows 7 computers. Windows 8.1 will be introduced shortly in your organization. Given the information presented, what issue should you be aware of?
- Windows 8.1 has a different licensing scheme when using roaming profiles.
- Windows 8.1 roaming profiles and Windows 7 roaming profiles are not compatible with each other.
- Windows 8.1 will not be able to read a roaming profile created with Windows 7.
- Windows 8.1 users will not be able to log in to the network as their roaming profile will not load until upgraded.
A: Windows 8.1 roaming profiles and Windows 7 roaming profiles are not compatible with each other.
Feedback: User profiles created with Windows 8.1 are not compatible with Windows 7 or earlier versions. If you use a computer running Windows 8.1 to access a roaming profile created with Windows 7, Windows 8.1 automatically upgrades the profile to its new format, rendering it unusable with Windows 7.

Q: You have a small number of Windows XP computers in your organization. You need to manually move as much data from the user profile locations for these computers as possible to the new Windows 8.1 computers these users will be receiving shortly. Where in the file system would you find the profile information?
- C:\Windows\Profiles
- C:\Documents and Settings
- C:\Users
- C:\AppData\Users
A: C:\Documents and Settings
Feedback: On a standalone Windows XP workstation, user profiles are stored in the Documents and Settings folder, in subfolders named for the user accounts. Starting in Windows Vista and continuing through Windows 8.1 workstations, the subfolders are found in the Users folder.

Q: Microsoft has created two different tools for migrating files and settings to new computers. Select the correct answer for two these tools.
- Windows Easy Transfer
- Files and Settings Transfer Wizard
- User State Migration Tool
- Easy Migration Wizard
A: Windows Easy Transfer; User State Migration Tool
Feedback: Microsoft has created two different tools for migrating files and settings to new computers, which are as follows: - Windows Easy Transfer: Designed for the migration of a single computer, Easy Transfer is a wizard-based utility that makes it possible to migrate user profile information for multiple users from one computer to another. - User State Migration Tool: Designed for large-scale enterprise deployments, User State Migration Tool is a command-line utility that can migrate profile information for multiple users on multiple computers.

Q: In the scenario where you are installing Windows 8.1 on a new computer and plan to dispose of an old computer running Windows XP, which Windows Easy Transfer method would be most appropriate to use?
- Side-by-side
- Wipe-and-load
- Forklift live move
- Store for later
A: Side-by-side
Feedback: In a side-by-side migration, you have two computers running simultaneously; one is the source computer containing the user profile information you want to transfer, and the other is the destination computer running Windows 8.1 to which you want to transfer the profile information.

Q: When using Windows Easy Transfer to transfer data from an older computer to a new Windows 8.1 computer, which of the following storage mediums are acceptable for use? (Choose all that apply.)
- DVD
- USB flash drive
- Floppy drive
- Network cable
A: DVD; USB flash drive
Feedback: Windows Easy Transfer can use virtually any storage medium to transfer profile data between computers, as long as it provides sufficient storage space and is accessible by both machines. You can use a writable CD or DVD, a USB flash drive, an external hard drive, or a network share. Floppy disks are not supported because they have insufficient capacity.

Q: When performing a side-by-side migration using Windows Easy Transfer, which of the following connection methods are acceptable? (Choose all that apply.)
- Easy Transfer
- Removable USB hard drive
- Removable USB flash drive
- Network
A: Easy Transfer; Removable USB hard drive; Removable USB flash drive; Network
Feedback: When you are performing a side-by-side migration, you can use Windows Easy Transfer with the computers connected together directly, using a cable or a network, or connected indirectly, using a removable storage medium.

Q: What is the name of the USMT application that is used to save user profile data for a migration?
- loadstate.exe
- savestate.exe
- parsestate.exe
- scanstate.exe
A: scanstate.exe
Feedback: The scanstate.exe application is used to save user profile data for subsequent migration when using the USMT.

Q: The User State Migration Tool uses several files to control the migration process. What is the file format of these files?
- TXT
- CFG
- DAT
- XML
A: XML
Feedback: USMT uses XML (Extensible Markup Language) files to control the migration process. The default XML files supplied with the program enable it to migrate the most common user data sources, but it is also possible to create your own XML files to migrate specific application settings and data.

Q: What advantages are realized by storing user data on a network file share location versus on local workstation hard drives? (Choose all that apply.)
- Faster backups
- User mobility
- Reducing licensing costs
- Simplified workstation replacement
A: Faster backups; User mobility; Simplified workstation replacement
Feedback: It is preferable to store user data on server drives rather than local workstation drives for several reasons, including the following: - Backups: Backing up one or two servers is much faster, easier, and often cheaper than backing up multiple workstations. - Mobility: With all data files stored on server drives, users can work from any computer and move to another location as needed. - Replacement: Deploying new client computers in the place of older ones is a simple matter of replacing the hardware; no migration of data files is necessary.

Q: When configuring folder redirection, which setting option could render the redirected contents inaccessible to the users at some point in the future?
- Target Folder Location
- Policy Removal
- Setting
- Grant The User Exclusive Rights
A: Policy Removal
Feedback: If the Leave the folder in the new location when policy is removed option is selected for the Policy Removal setting, the workstation will direct the folders back to the local drives without copying their contents from the server, thus rendering those contents inaccessible to the user. The data will be stored on the network location still, but the users will not have a path to that data by default.

Q: When configuring the Setting options for folder redirection, which option should be selected to allow for security group-based redirection of user’s folders?
- Basic
- Advanced
- Follow the Documents folder
- Group based
A: Advanced
Feedback: Choosing the Advanced option specifies locations for various user groups. This causes workstations to redirect the folders to different locations based on group memberships.

Q: You are an administrator at a corporation. Users at your corporation use roaming profiles, which are stored on a central file server. You have a user who has a desktop computer and a laptop, which are both running Windows 7. You upgrade the laptop computer to Windows 8.1.1. However, the user is having problems accessing his profile when using his desktop computer. What is the problem?
- When the user used Windows 8.1.1, the profile was upgraded, which is incompatible with Windows 7.
- Permissions were changed when you upgraded the laptop.
- The roaming profile has to be reconfigured.
- The roaming profile is disabled.
A: When the user used Windows 8.1.1, the profile was upgraded, which is incompatible with Windows 7.
Feedback: When you try to use the same user account to log on to a Windows 7-based computer, the user profile modification that was performed in Windows 8.1.1 might not work as expected in Windows 7.

Q: By default, a folder redirection policy configured for Windows 8.1 users will or will not function correctly on Windows XP computers?
Feedback: It will not You will need to enable the “Also Apply Redirection Policy To Windows 2000, Windows 2000 Server, Windows XP, And Windows Server 2003 Operating Systems” setting to provide compatibility with earlier operating systems that use different folder names in their user profiles, such as “My Documents”.

Q: To improve login performance when using roaming profiles in a busy network, it is recommended to place the roaming profile storage location on a ___________ instead of a __________.
Feedback: member server, domain controller You should create roaming user profiles on a file server that you back up frequently, so that you always have copies of your users’ most recent profiles. To improve logon performance for a busy network, place the users’ roaming profiles folder on a member server instead of a domain controller.

Q: After the Ntuser.dat file has been renamed to Ntuser.man, what is the read/write status of the file?
Feedback: It becomes read-only Renaming this file with a .man extension makes it read-only, preventing the client computers from saving changes to the profile when a user logs off.

Q: The User State Migration Tool (USMT) has the same basic capabilities as Windows Easy Transfer. The primary difference between the two is that USMT is a __________.
Feedback: command-line program that lacks a graphical interface The User State Migration Tool (USMT) has the same basic capabilities as Windows Easy Transfer. The primary difference between the two is that USMT is a command-line program that lacks a graphical interface.

Q: What advantage is gained by the USMT being a command-line application versus a GUI application?
Feedback: It allows for easy integration into scripts The command-line interface enables administrators to incorporate USMT tasks into scripts, making it more suitable for large-scale deployments than Windows Easy Transfer.
