Microsoft Endpoint Administrator — Question 213

You have a Microsoft 365 Business Standard subscription and 100 Windows 10 Pro devices that are joined to Microsoft Entra.

You purchase Microsoft 365 E5 licenses for all users.

You need to upgrade the Windows 10 Pro devices to Windows 10 Enterprise. The solution must minimize administrative effort.

Which upgrade method should you use?

Answer options

• A. a Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) lite-touch deployment
• B. Subscription Activation
• C. an in-place upgrade by using Windows installation media
• D. Windows Autopilot

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Subscription Activation, as it allows for seamless upgrades from Windows 10 Pro to Enterprise using the Microsoft 365 E5 licenses, significantly reducing administrative tasks. The other methods, such as MDT lite-touch deployment, in-place upgrades with installation media, and Windows Autopilot, require more manual steps or additional setup, making them less efficient for this scenario.
