Managing Modern Desktops (legacy) — Question 17

You are replacing 100 company-owned Windows devices.
You need to use the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) to securely wipe and decommission the devices. The solution must meet the following requirements:
✑ Back up the user state.
✑ Minimize administrative effort.
Which task sequence template should you use?

Answer options

• A. Litetouch OEM Task Sequence
• B. Sysprep and Capture
• C. Standard Client Replace Task Sequence
• D. Standard Client Task Sequence

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, the Standard Client Replace Task Sequence, as it is specifically designed for replacing existing devices while backing up user state and minimizing administrative effort. Option A, Litetouch OEM Task Sequence, is not tailored for replacing devices. Option B, Sysprep and Capture, is more suited for capturing an image rather than replacing devices, and Option D, Standard Client Task Sequence, does not focus on the replacement process.
