VMware Carbon Black Cloud Professional — Question 32

The administrator of Windows 10 desktops in a VMware Horizon environment needs to build a new Windows 10 desktop pool. This new pool will be dedicated to training and onboarding new employees. The administrator has created a shortcut on a test machine, which has successfully opened the web browser to the on-boarding applications. After deploying the new desktop pool across the company, the administrator notices that the shortcut placed on desktops is not available to any other user connecting to the desktop pool.
Which two options are available for the administrator to make this shortcut available to all desktop pool users, while minimizing ongoing administrative effort, before updating the desktop pool golden image? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Configure a Shortcut with Horizon View Client.
• B. Copy the shortcut to c:\users\Public\Desktop.
• C. Configure a Shortcut with DEM (Dynamic Environment Manager).
• D. Copy the shortcut during user provisioning to a non-writeable App Volume.
• E. Copy the shortcut to the Windows Default Domain Controller Policy.

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct answers are B and C because placing the shortcut in c:\users\Public\Desktop ensures all users can access it regardless of their individual profiles, while using DEM allows for centralized management of shortcuts across user sessions. The other options either do not provide the required accessibility to all users or involve more complex configurations that would lead to increased administrative overhead.
