CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 6

A user reports a computer is running slow. Which of the following tools will help a technician identify the issue?

Answer options

• A. Disk Cleanup
• B. Group Policy Editor
• C. Disk Management
• D. Resource Monitor

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Resource Monitor is the appropriate tool as it provides real-time data on CPU, memory, disk, and network usage, helping to identify performance bottlenecks. Disk Cleanup is used for freeing up space, Group Policy Editor manages user and computer settings, and Disk Management is for partitioning and managing drives, none of which directly address performance issues.
