Which of the following columns will give her this information?
A) Principal
B) Access
C) Applies to
D) Inherited from

Accepted Answer

The "Inherited from" column in the Advanced Security Settings window indicates the parent folder or location from which the permission settings were originally inherited, helping to identify where the permission setting was first applied.

Question 6

Wemimo creates a new folder named NewFolder in D:\Labs\Test. In the Permissions tab in advanced security settings, he disables inheritance for this folder.
Which of the following is true of the permission inheritance in this scenario?
A) This blocks inheritance of permissions for NewFolder from higher levels in D:\Labs\Test.

Question 8

Marsha and Moira belong to the Sales group that has full control permissions to the K:\Sales folder. Within this folder, Marsha is assigned read permission to a file named SalesPipeline. Moira is assigned read and execute permissions to the same file. Marsha also belongs to the Marketing group that has read permissions denied to the K:\Sales folder, while Moira also belongs to the Legal group that has write permissions denied to the K:\Sales folder.
Which of the following is true of the effective permissions in this scenario?
A) Marsha can modify the SalesPipeline file.
B) Moira can modify the SalesPipeline file.
C) Marsha cannot open the Sales folder.
D) Moira cannot open the Sales folder.

Accepted Answer

DIn Windows, when a user is a member of multiple groups, the effective permissions are the combination of the permissions granted to each group, with deny permissions taking precedence over allow permissions. Since Marsha's Marketing group has read permissions denied to the K:\Sales folder, and Moira's Legal group has write permissions denied to the same folder, both users will face restrictions based on these deny permissions. Specifically, Marsha will not be able to open the Sales folder due to the deny read permission from the Marketing group, and Moira will also not be able to open the Sales folder because the deny permission effectively overrides any allow permissions from other group memberships.

Question 9

Ruzwana creates a folder K:\Test. She edits the permissions of the folder to explicitly deny modify permissions to the folder.
Which of the following actions will Ruzwana be able to perform on the folder as its owner?
A) Write attributes
B) Create files
C) List folder
D) Change permissions

Accepted Answer

As the owner of the folder, Ruzwana retains the ability to change permissions on the folder, even if she has explicitly denied modify permissions. This is because ownership rights include the ability to modify permissions regardless of other set permissions.

Question 10

Chao creates a file YTDReport and places it a folder titled TownHall. Only the Managers group has full control permissions to the TownHall folder. Later, Chao moves this folder to the Presentations folder on the same NTFS volume. The Managers group does not have any explicit permissions to the content in the Presentations folder.
Which of the following is true of this scenario?
A) The Managers group will have full control permissions to the TownHall folder.
B) The Managers group will not be able to modify content within the TownHall folder.
C) Users outside the Managers group will be able to view content within the TownHall folder.
D) Chao will not be able to make further modifications to the YTDReport.

Accepted Answer

When a folder is moved within the same NTFS volume, it retains its original permissions. Therefore, the Managers group will still have full control permissions to the TownHall folder.

Which of the following is a valid observation if you choose the option Turn on password protected sharing?
A) You can restrict access to the shared Public folder to valid user accounts, but you cannot select which user accounts have access.
B) Anyone can access the information in the Public folder, even if they do not have a valid user account on the sharing computer.
C) Network users can access the shared folder by using a local user account and not a domain user account.
D) Network users do not need to sign in to the sharing computer to access the contents of the Public folder.

Accepted Answer

Turning on password protected sharing means that only users who have a valid user account and password on the sharing computer can access shared folders, including the Public folder. However, it does not allow for specifying which user accounts can access the Public folder; it simply requires a valid login.

Question 13

Question 15

Nikita intends to use the folder sharing wizard to create a share named Proposals on her computer, Desktop20. She navigates to the location D:\Sales\. There, she right-clicks the Proposals folder and creates the share using the folder sharing wizard. She wants to share this folder with other users in the same workgroup.
Which of the following will allow other users to access the share on Nikita's computer?
A) D:\Sales\Proposals
B) \Desktop20\Proposals
C) \Desktop20\ D:\Sales\Proposals
D) \Desktop20\Sales\Proposals

Accepted Answer

The correct way to access a shared folder over a network is by using the UNC (Universal Naming Convention) path, which is formatted as \ComputerName\ShareName. In this case, since the share name is "Proposals" and it's shared from the computer named "Desktop20," the correct path is \Desktop20\Proposals.

Question 16

Ayaka is assigned Read share permissions to a folder and Full control NTFS permissions. She signs in to the computer holding this folder and tries accessing the folder by navigating via File Explorer.
What is the effective permission to the folder in this scenario?
A) Read
B) Read & Execute
C) Full control
D) Owner

Accepted Answer

When combining NTFS permissions with share permissions, the more restrictive permissions are supposed to apply. However, since Ayaka is accessing the folder locally (via File Explorer on the computer where the folder resides), share permissions do not apply. NTFS permissions take precedence in local access scenarios, granting her Full control.

Question 17

Jordan is assigned Full Control share permissions to a folder and Read NTFS permissions. He accesses the share by using the UNC path from his computer over the network.
What is Jordan's effective permission level to the share in this scenario?
A) Owner
B) Read & Execute
C) Full control
D) Read

Accepted Answer

When accessing a shared folder over a network, the effective permissions are the most restrictive permissions between the share permissions and the NTFS permissions. In this scenario, although Jordan has Full Control share permissions, the Read NTFS permissions are more restrictive. Therefore, his effective permission level is Read.

Question 18
