MD-102 Prepare infrastructure for devices Practice Question
Exhibit
WmiContext: root\cimv2 Query: SELECT * FROM Win32_EncryptableVolume WHERE ProtectionStatus = 0
Refer to the exhibit. A detection script for a Win32 app in Intune uses a WMI query. The script is expected to detect if BitLocker is not enabled. What will the script return if BitLocker is enabled on the device?
⚠ Common exam trap
The trap here is that candidates mistakenly think the script returns a value (like 1 or the drive letter) when BitLocker is enabled, rather than understanding that the query's WHERE clause filters for unprotected volumes, so a successful detection (non-empty result) only occurs when BitLocker is off.

Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
It returns no results, indicating that BitLocker is enabled.
The WMI query in the detection script uses the `SELECT * FROM Win32_EncryptableVolume WHERE DriveLetter = 'C:' AND ProtectionStatus = 0` condition. When BitLocker is enabled, `ProtectionStatus` is 1, so no volumes match the query. The script returns no results, which Intune interprets as the application not being detected (i.e., BitLocker is enabled, so the detection condition is not met).
