CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 139
A user received the following error message while trying to access a shared drive: Network Path was Not Found. Which of the following should be performed to resolve the issue? (Choose two.)
Answer options
- A. Set the NIC to full duplex.
- B. Disable the local firewall.
- C. Reset the TCP/IP stack.
- D. Disable the Ethernet adapter.
- E. Use static IP addressing instead of DHCP.
- F. Flush the DNS cache.
Correct answer: C, F
Explanation
Option C, resetting the TCP/IP stack, can resolve network connectivity issues by restoring the network settings to their default state. Option F, flushing the DNS cache, can help in clearing outdated or incorrect DNS entries that may prevent access to the shared drive. The other options do not directly address the network path issue, as changing duplex settings, disabling the firewall, or altering IP addressing methods may not resolve the underlying connectivity problem.
