Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Associate — Question 72

Scenario: A Citrix Administrator has deployed machines using Machine Creation Services (MCS). A user logs on to a desktop from a random/non-persistent pool of Windows 10 desktops. During the session, the user installs Microsoft Office 2016.
To which disk is the Microsoft Office installation data written during the session?

Answer options

• A. Differencing
• B. Identity
• C. Temporary
• D. Personal

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as the installation data for applications in a non-persistent environment is stored on the differencing disk, which captures changes made during the session. The other options, such as Identity and Personal disks, do not retain installation data for applications in this scenario, while Temporary disks are typically used for transient storage, not for installations.
