Wondering if this is implied in the question though? Member server can obv be promoted to DC using the AD DS promo wizard. Funny thing is that from what I've heard DCPROMO stops working at a concerning rate when NetBIOS/TCP IP is disabled on 12R2

Server1 is not a Domain Controller, is a member server. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To create a Central Store for .admx and .adml files, create a new folder named PolicyDefinitions in the following location (for example) on the domain controller: \\contoso.com\SYSVOL\contoso.com\policies\PolicyDefinitions When you already have such a folder that has a previously built Central Store, use a new folder describing the current version such as: \\contoso.com\SYSVOL\contoso.com\policies\PolicyDefinitions-1803 Copy all files from the PolicyDefinitions folder on a source computer to the new PolicyDefinitions folder on the domain controller -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-US/troubleshoot/windows-client/group-policy/create-and-manage-central-store

The Administrative Templates contain the Group Policy settings that can be configured for Windows 10 devices, including the Windows Update for Business settings. By copying the latest version of the Administrative Templates for Windows 10 to Server1, you can configure and manage the Windows Update for Business Group Policy settings from Server1 using the Group Policy Management Console.

This server is being used to *manage* group policy, not *deploy* group policy. For this server to be able to edit the policies required it needs to have a copy of the Windows 10 Admin templates and GPMC. The scope of this question is limited to server 1. For the policies to deploy properly, those admx templates need to be copied to the policy store as well, but that ism't necessary for server 1 to see the applicable policies in gpmc. DCs are out of scope. So answer is A

So after testing on my home lab I believe the answer is B. The reason behind this is as follows: - When you install RSAT on a client to adminster a DC it references the policies on the DC it is connected to or the central store (if present) - This means that although the user has coppied the ADMX templates to their local PolicyDefinitions folder it will not show in gpmc.msc Whilst it would not be "mandatory" (Although it would be sensible) for them to create a "Central Store" as this is only required if you are administering policies across multiple DCs it would make life easier as then regardless of which DC there system is connected to it will have the required policies to edit the WUFB policy. All of this means the answer should be B as the bare minimum would be to install RSAT tools on their client, connect it to a DC and at a minimum copy the ADMX files to the C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions folder on that DC or better yet make a Central Store by copying files to SYSVOL\domain.tld\Policy

Very vague description but this one showed up in the exam in Sep 16 2022. I chosed A. Very general speaking update GPO template from a win10 computer is the right way for a win2012 r2 server to be able to manage the said policies.

Ok, but in the description we can read that there is already Server 2019, promoted as Domain Controller, so this server will have newer admx settings.

Forget about it, you still have to upload the admx files. My bad.

Yeah just copy the admx to the windows/policy definition folder. No need for this server to be a domain controller to managed GPOs.

the Server certainly does need to be a Domain Controller to be editing and pushing GPOs.

Nonsense. You can use a domain-joined server to modify domain GPOs. How you do it is by installing RSAT tools on your domain-joined server.

It's A, it states that you plan to use Server1 to manage the domain. Even though it is only a member server, you can install admin tools and edit group policies from it. Copying the templates from a Windows 10 computer will meet the goal.

"You plan to use Server1 to manage the domain and to configure Windows 10 Group Policy settings." Is that not a DC?

You can manage the domain from any Windows OS (10/11/2012R2/2016/etc.) with RSAT or even with MMC by adding the corresponding snap-ins

Please correct me if I'm wrong.. But I'd say the answer is A. Yes. the domain controller is Server 2019, which should already have the required ADMX and ADML. Copying them from Windows 10 to NETLOGON won't make any difference, as the DC already have the needed files. Thoughts?

Where are you getting Netlogon from in the question? As others have said, you can copy them to a central store to manage but the question does not indicate where it is being copied to.

Answer is YES: I am 120% sure docs.microsoft.com clearly documents Registry key to prefer LOCAL store OVER the Sysvol one. Means yes, local copy of ADMX. Did it without any AD at all, by the way. EDIT GPO has nothing to do with actually Applying it, by the way. GPO edit can be 100% all local standalone and applied for test also locally.

As long as the policies are in the domain SYSVOL, it doesn't matter what OS you use to manage them with GPMC.
