A user accidentally deleted a folder tree from an Azure file share. The administrator needs to restore only the deleted folders to the state they had yesterday, not roll back the whole share. Which feature should be used?

Restore the entire storage account from an account-level backup.

That would be too broad and would recover far more data than the scenario requires.

Enable blob versioning on the storage account and recover the folders from versions.

Blob versioning applies to blobs, not to Azure file shares mounted through Azure Files.

Create a shared access signature with read permissions and use it to recover the folder tree.

A SAS controls access, but it does not create a previous point-in-time copy for recovery.

What does this AZ-104 question test?

Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.

What is the correct answer to this question?

The correct answer is: Use a file share snapshot and copy the needed folders back from it. — File share snapshots are the correct mechanism because they preserve point-in-time state for Azure Files. The administrator can open the snapshot, locate the missing folders, and restore only those items instead of reverting the entire share. This is especially useful when accidental deletion affects a limited portion of a share and business users still need current content elsewhere on the share to remain unchanged. Why others are wrong: A full account backup or restore is broader than needed and would risk overwriting unrelated current data. Blob versioning is for blob containers, not file shares. A SAS grants access permissions, but it does not provide historical file state or help reconstruct deleted folders.

What should I do if I get this AZ-104 question wrong?

Then try more questions from the same exam bank and focus on understanding why the wrong options are tempting.
