CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 292

A user is setting up backups on a workstation. The user wants to ensure that the restore process is as simple as possible. Which of the following backup types should the user select?

Answer options

• A. Full
• B. Incremental
• C. Differential
• D. Synthetic

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct choice is 'Full' because it involves backing up all data at once, making the restore process uncomplicated. Incremental backups only save changes since the last backup, while differential backups save changes since the last full backup, both of which can complicate restoration. Synthetic backup combines multiple backups but may not simplify the restore process as much as a full backup.
