  1. Perform a System Restore.
  2. Uninstall and block the patch.
  3. Upgrade the application.
  4. Change the underlying hypervisor.

A smartphone user unsuccessfully attempts to open an email attachment that includes an unexpected overdue invoice. After that attempt, the user notices performance issues while using the mobile browser and other applications. The user restarts the smartphone, but the issue persists.
Which of the following actions would most likely resolve the issue?

  1. Forcing the smartphone to shut down and restarting it
  2. Deleting the email containing the attachment
  3. Wiping the device and resetting it to factory defaults
  4. Uninstalling and reinstalling the mobile browser

A technician is helping a remote user. The technician asks the user to open a specific folder on the root directory of the computer. The user cannot find a folder with that name. The technician explains that a few settings are needed to allow the folder to appear.
Which of the following should the user do to be able to see the folder? (Choose two.)

  1. Adjust the display properties.
  2. Open File Explorer.
  3. Open the root drive properties.
  4. Configure the system settings.
  5. Set the view extensions to "on".
  6. Check the box to view hidden files.

Answer(s): B,F

Opening File Explorer is required to access folder view options and navigate to the root directory.
Viewing hidden files must be enabled because some system folders are hidden by default and will not appear until this option is checked.



A user calls the help desk to report an issue with their smartphone. After the user returns from a business trip, the user is no longer able to access email or visit websites without a Wi-Fi connection on the smartphone.
Which of the following would the user do to most likely resolve the issue?

  1. Enable cellular data.
  2. Increase data limits.
  3. Disconnect the VPN.
  4. Reinstall the SIM card

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

If the smartphone works only on Wi-Fi and not on mobile networks, the most likely cause is that cellular data is disabled. Enabling cellular data restores access to email and websites while away from Wi-Fi.

  3. Install word processing tools on the user's laptop.
  4. Connect the user's laptop to Wi-Fi.

The document was created using online collaboration tools, meaning it resides in cloud storage. To make it available on the laptop, the technician must synchronize the remote (cloud) folder with the local device, ensuring the file is downloaded and accessible.
