Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Boot from Windows installation media or system repair disc, then click 'Repair your computer', then select 'Troubleshoot', then select 'Advanced options', then select 'System Image Recovery' and follow the wizard to restore.
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because system image recovery must be initiated from the Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE). Booting from installation media and navigating through Repair your computer, Troubleshoot, and Advanced options leads to System Image Recovery, which is the only way to restore a system image backup.
- ✗
Boot from Windows installation media or system repair disc, then click 'Repair your computer', then select 'System Image Recovery' directly.
Why it's wrong here
This order is incorrect because after clicking 'Repair your computer', you are taken to a screen with 'Troubleshoot' and 'Turn off PC' options. 'System Image Recovery' is not available directly; you must first select 'Troubleshoot' and then 'Advanced options' to find it.
- ✗
Within Windows, go to Settings > Update & Security > Backup, then click 'Restore files from backup' and select the system image.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because Windows does not allow restoring a system image while the operating system is running. The restoration must be performed from the recovery environment. Additionally, 'Restore files from backup' is for file-level backups, not system image restoration.
- ✗
Boot from Windows installation media or system repair disc, then click 'Repair your computer', then select 'Troubleshoot', then select 'Advanced options', then select 'Startup Repair'.
Why it's wrong here
This order is incorrect because 'Startup Repair' is used to fix boot issues, not to restore a system image backup. The correct tool for restoring a full system image is 'System Image Recovery', which is also located under Advanced options.
