You need to back up user data on a Windows 11 system. The computer has a single SSD storage device installed that contains both the Windows operating system (in C:\Windows) and user profile data (in C:\Users). You plan to do the following:

-- Use Backup and Restore to back up user data.

-- Run the backup automatically every night at 11:00 p.m.

-- Store the backups in the C:\Backups folder.

-- Include a system image in each backup.

Will this configuration work?

• No, backups created with Backup and Restore can't be stored on the drive that contains the information being backed up.

• No, Windows 11 does not include the Backup and Restore utility. You must use File History instead.

• No, system image backups can't be scheduled with Backup and Restore. You must run them manually.

• Yes, all of the requirements for using Backup and Restore have been met.

Match each backup method on the left with the correct description on the right.

• Synthetic

• Compares the data found in the last full backup with the current content and uploads only the changes.

• Incremental

• Backs up all files (even those that have not changed).

• Differential

• Backs up every file that has changed since the last full or incremental backup.

• Full

• Backs up every file that has changed since the last full backup.

Why should you store backup media offsite?

• To prevent the same disaster from affecting both the system and its associated backup media.

• It is required by government regulations in the USA.

• To improve the efficiency of the restoration process.

• To reduce the possibility of theft.

You work as the IT administrator for a small startup company. Lily's computer has two internal hard drives and runs Windows 11.

Which of the following would BEST protect Lily's files?

• Back up her files using File History.

• Purchase a third-party backup software program.
