Exam MD-100 topic 2 question 33 discussion

Answer A is correct as the install.wim file must be in an area that has read/write privelidges. If the install.wim file is on a CD/DVD this cannot be wrote to. In question 30 there is a risk that the question has missed out that the media has R/W permissions such as if it were a USB HDD/SSD.

B is Correct Answer. Option A, which involves copying Install.wim from drive E to drive D, is not necessary for creating the unattended answer file. The correct approach is to directly select the Install.wim file from drive E using Windows System Image Manager (Windows SIM). Here's why: Windows SIM: This tool can directly access the Install.wim file from its current location (drive E) to create the catalog file and the answer file. There's no need to copy the file to another drive. So, the correct first step remains: B. From Windows System Image Manager, select Select Windows Image, and then select Install.wim from drive E.

vinodhg if you're install media is on a thumbdrive yes, on a CD wich is read only not the case. I would go with answer A. that makes the most sence.

A is correct. Read the GREEN TIP section that states it has to be in a read write location. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/update-windows-settings-and-scripts-create-your-own-answer-file-sxs?view=windows-11
