CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1002) — Question 53

A SOHO technician needs to upgrade two computers quickly and is not concerned about retaining user settings. The users currently have Windows 8 and want to upgrade to Windows 10.
Which of the following installation methods would the technician MOST likely use to accomplish this quickly?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as an unattended installation allows for the operating system to be installed without manual intervention, making it quick and efficient. Option B, remote network installation, would require additional setup and time to configure. Option C, in-place upgrade, retains settings and data, which is not a concern here. Option D, clean installation, would also be time-consuming as it involves wiping the system and starting fresh.
