Answers

1.A is correct. Shadow copies (introduced in Windows Server 2003), when configured, automatically create backup copies of the data stored in data folders on specific drive volumes at scheduled times. The drive volume must be formatted as NTFS. Windows 7 utilizes Shadow copies to provide previous versions of files even if they have never been backed up. Answer B is incorrect because IIS, short for Internet Information Services, is Microsoft’s web server. Answer C is incorrect because Windows Backup must be manually executed or scheduled. Answer D is incorrect because System Configuration (MSConfig) is used to troubleshoot boot problems.
2.A is correct. System Restore helps you restore your computer’s system files to an earlier point in time. It’s a way to undo system changes to your computer without affecting your personal files, such as email, documents, or photos. Answer B is incorrect because Shadow Copy is used to provide previous versions of data files. Answer C is incorrect because the System Image Backup is a copy of the system drives required for Windows to run. Answer D is incorrect because Safe Mode is used to load only the minimum drivers and services for Windows 7 to run.
