MD-102 Manage and maintain devices Practice Question

Exhibit

Refer to the exhibit.

{
  "@odata.type": "#microsoft.graph.windows10CustomConfiguration",
  "omaSettings": [
    {
      "@odata.type": "#microsoft.graph.omaSettingString",
      "displayName": "Custom ADMX setting",
      "description": "Enables feature XYZ",
      "omaUri": "./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_Custom/Policy_XYZ",
      "value": "1"
    }
  ]
}

You have created the above custom policy but it fails to apply on Windows 10 devices. What is the most likely reason?

⚠ Common exam trap

Watch out — candidates often assume any OMA-URI error is due to targeting (user vs. device) or data type issues, but the MD-102 exam specifically tests the precise URI syntax for ADMX-backed policies, which is a common misconfiguration point.

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

The OMA-URI path is incorrect for an ADMX-backed policy.

The OMA-URI path for an ADMX-backed policy must follow the exact format: `./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/ADMX_<Category>/<PolicyName>`. If the path is incorrect—for example, missing the `ADMX_` prefix or using a wrong category name—the policy will fail to apply on Windows 10 devices. Custom configuration policies do support ADMX-backed policies, but the URI must precisely match the ADMX administrative template structure.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

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

  • The value must be an integer, not a string.

    Why it's wrong here

    The setting is defined as a string in the JSON.

  • The OMA-URI targets the user, not the device.

    Why it's wrong here

    The URI starts with './Device', so it targets the device.

  • Custom configuration policies are not supported on Windows 10.

    Why it's wrong here

    Custom policies are supported.

  • The OMA-URI path is incorrect for an ADMX-backed policy.

    Why this is correct

    ADMX policies require a specific URI format that includes the category path.
