Which backup method does not reset the archive bit on files that are backed up?

  • A. Full backup method
  • B. Incremental backup method
  • C. Differential backup method
  • D. Additive backup method
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C 🗳️
The differential backup method only copies files that have changed since the last full backup was performed. It is additive in the fact that it does not reset the archive bit so all changed or added files are backed up in every differential backup until the next full backup. The "additive backup method" is not a common backup method.
