When you upgrade a basic disk to a dynamic disk, existing partitions are converted to…
simple volumes.
How can you convert a disk partition without losing any data?
Use the Convert command to change the file system
Libraries?
Is used to group files and folders, locally and on network locations, into a single logical folder.
To see the temporary files on a machine running Windows 7 (or Vista),
%tmp% or %temp% or C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp directory
The .msi extension identifies
installation file for use by Windows Installer.
The .exe extension indicates
a program file.
The extension .bat indicates
a batch file.
The extension .dll indicates
a dynamic link library system file
Windows system file?
.dll (dynamic link library)
.drv (device driver)
.vxd (virtual device driver)
Program file extensions ?
.exe and .com.
The robocopy command (short for Robust File Copy)
to copy entire folder structures between volumes or across a network.
A benefit of using robocopy is
All NTFS file permissions and attributes are maintained and interrupted transfers can be resumed.
The xcopy command will
copy files and directory trees but will not maintain all NTFS file permissions and attributes.
Use Chkdsk or Scandisk
to check a disk for bad clusters.
Use Fdisk to
create partitions
When you move or copy files to an NTFS partition, the files inherit the permissions configured for the partition and parent folders except
If you had configured explicit permissions for the files, then moving the file would retain the explicit permissions assigned to the file.
An operating system is a set of programs that acts as an interface between
the applications that are running on a computer and the computer’s hardware.
Which Windows tools would you use to browse the file system on a drive? (Select three.)
My Computer
Windows Explorer
File Explorer
Processor utilization
is the amount (percentage) of time the processor spends doing non idle tasks.
The % Disk Time statistic
identifies the percentage of time that the disk subsystem is busy reading from and writing to disk.
The average disk queue length
tells you the number of read and write requests that are typically waiting to be processed.
The commit charge
how much memory has been assigned to running processes.
Memory pages per second represents
the number of hard faults that occur each second.
Windows Easy Transfer (WET)
is designed for user data migrations in small environments or for a single computer.
User State Migration Tool (USMT)
is an advanced tool designed for larger environments involving many computers.

Use Remote Assistance to
watch what another user is doing. In the session, you can take control of host and show the user how to complete the task.
Remote Desktop,
you could do the task on the user’s computer, but they wouldn’t be able to see what you’re doing.
Storage spaces are comprised of three components:
Devices
Pools Of Storage> Made up of those devices
Storage Spaces> Made up of those storage pools
Devices
are the hard disks or other types of storage from which storage pools are created. You can use a variety of devices such as SATA drives and external drives to create storage pools.
Pools of storage
A pool is a logical concept composed of the free space available on the specified storage devices.
Storage spaces define
logical units of space created from a pool. One or more storage spaces can be created from the pool. To the Windows system and the user, storage spaces appear as disks with typical drive letters (e.g., E: drive, F: drive).
When you need more disk space for your storage spaces, follow these steps:
- Install a new storage device to the system
- Add the free space on that device to a storage pool
- Allocate space to an existing storage space
Backups created with Backup and Restore cannot
be stored on the same drive containing the information being backed up
Reliability Monitor
assesses the system’s overall stability.
Performance Monitor
displays statistics that tell you about the operation of your computer.
What is the recommended size of the paging file on a Windows 10 system with xxxGB’s of RAM installed?
Equal to the amount of physical RAM.
What is another name for the paging file?
Virtual Memory
Where should you place the paging file?
System Volume
Which tool would you use to configure the paging file location and size on a Windows system?
Advanced System Settings in Control Panel
The only way to go from NTFS to FAT32 is
-To reformat the drive. -Because reformatting destroys all data, you should back up the drive before formatting, then restore
MSCONFIG (aka System Configuration) allows you to do what at boot?
create a log file of what is happening at boot time by selecting the Boot tab and marking Boot log.
When creating a Windows software RAID on Windows 10,
all of the drive used for the RAID system must be configured as dynamic disks
A hidden share is a form of a network share that
cannot be viewed by others when they are searching for the shared location. These shares are created by adding a $ to the end of the share when it is created.
