CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 89

A user is connected to a docking station with an optical drive and is trying to back up personal files to removable media, but is encountering write errors. Which of the following is MOST likely cause of the errors?

Answer options

• A. The disk has already been finalized
• B. The files are encrypted
• C. There is a corrupt file on the hard drive
• D. The files are not compatible with the type of disk used

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because once a disk is finalized, no further data can be written to it. Options B and C are less likely to cause write errors during the backup process, and option D would typically indicate compatibility issues rather than outright write errors.
