Windows Server Administration Fundamentals — Question 182

You are in-house technician for Tailspin Toys.
Your manager attends a conference out of town. You are taking responsibility for some maintenance activities while the manager is gone.
You must perform routine maintenance directly on a Windows Server 2016 server console. You do not have sufficient rights on the server to perform the maintenance.
You need your manager to enter credentials at a User Account Control (UAC) prompt in your session.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Have your manager use Server Manager to connect to the server.
• B. Have your manager use Remote Administration to connect to the server.
• C. Send a Remote Assistance request to your manager.
• D. Have your manager use Remote Desktop to connect to the server.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because using Remote Desktop allows your manager to log in to the server with their own credentials, enabling them to control the session and respond to the User Account Control (UAC) prompts. Options A and B do not provide a direct way for the manager to enter UAC credentials in your session, while option C does not grant the necessary level of access for maintenance tasks.
