CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1002) — Question 316

A technician needs to ensure users are prompted or warned when an installation takes place on a Windows system. Which of the following would meet this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Educate the user to run the installation with runas
• B. Add the user to the local administrators group
• C. Enable UAC on the workstation
• D. Log in as the administrator to install the application

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Enabling UAC (User Account Control) on the workstation is the correct answer because it prompts users with a warning whenever an installation is initiated, thereby ensuring they are aware of the action. The other options either do not provide a prompt (A, B, D) or involve actions that do not inherently notify users about installations.
