Windows Operating System Fundamentals — Question 22

You need to find out whether your computer can run a program that performs resource-intensive tasks.
Which Windows feature should you use?

Answer options

• A. System Configuration Utility
• B. Memory Diagnostics Tool
• C. Reliability and Performance Monitor
• D. Windows Experience Index

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The Windows Experience Index assesses the performance capabilities of your computer, providing a score based on its hardware specifications, which helps determine if it can run resource-heavy applications. The other options do not evaluate overall system performance for running demanding software; for example, the System Configuration Utility is used for managing startup options, while the Memory Diagnostics Tool checks for memory issues.
