Refer to the exhibit. You are evaluating a compliance policy for Windows 10. The policy is assigned to a group containing devices running Windows 10 version 1803 (build 17134.1). Which of the following devices will be marked as non-compliant?

⚠ Common exam trap

The key trap is that this policy sets a *minimum* OS version (10.0.17134.1). Many candidates assume compliance policies only enforce a *maximum* version, so a higher build might be incorrectly deemed non-compliant. But with a minimum, any build below 17134.1 is non-compliant, while builds at or above are compliant.

Answer choices

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

A device with OS version 10.0.16299.0 (build 1709).

The compliance policy specifies a minimum OS version of 10.0.17134.1 (build 1803). Devices with an OS version lower than this minimum are marked non-compliant. Options A (build 16299.0, version 1709) and D (build 15063.0, version 1703) are both below the minimum, so they are non-compliant. Option B matches exactly and is compliant. Option C has a higher build (17134.2), which exceeds the minimum, making it compliant.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • A device with OS version 10.0.16299.0 (build 1709).

    Why this is correct

    This device has build 16299.0 (version 1709), which is below the minimum OS version of 10.0.17134.1 (build 1803). Therefore, it is non-compliant.

  • A device with OS version 10.0.17134.1 (build 1803).

    Why it's wrong here

    This device matches the minimum OS version exactly. It is compliant.

  • A device with OS version 10.0.17134.2 (build 1803).

    Why it's wrong here

    This device has a higher build number (17134.2) than the minimum (17134.1). Since it exceeds the minimum, it is compliant. (Note: a common trap is to think higher is non-compliant, but for a minimum policy, higher is acceptable.)

  • A device with OS version 10.0.15063.0 (build 1703).

    Why this is correct

    This device has build 15063.0 (version 1703), which is below the minimum OS version. It is non-compliant.
