Suggested Answer:

Box 1: Install the Windows Deployment Services role.
Install and initialize Windows Deployment Services (WDS)
On the server:
Open an elevated Windows PowerShell prompt and enter the following command:
Install-WindowsFeature -Name WDS -IncludeManagementTools
WDSUTIL /Verbose /Progress /Initialize-Server /Server:MDT01 /RemInst:"D:\RemoteInstall"
WDSUTIL /Set-Server /AnswerClients:All
Incorrect:
* Install the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK)
MDT installation required the ADK, but MDT is already installed.
Box 2: Windows 10 image and task sequence only
Create the reference image task sequence
In order to build and capture your Windows 10 reference image for deployment using MDT, you will create a task sequence.

The MDT installation would require ADK, but it states that MDT is already installed on the server. Therefore I think the given answer is correct.

I agree since it does state MDT is already installed (which means ADK is already installed). After doing some reading on the subject I think adding the WDS role and using this in conjunction with MDT would make the most sense for deploying WIN 10 to a group of computers (although the client computers would need to have PXE-enabled network cards for this to work so they can boot from the image specified in the WDS server options). Steps to accompish this: 1) https://petri.com/deploy-windows-10-using-mdt-wds-part-1-create-mdt-deployment-share/ 2) https://petri.com/deploy-windows-10-using-mdt-wds-part-2-install-wds-boot-pxe-client/ 3) https://petri.com/deploy-windows-10-using-mdt-wds-part-3-deploy-windows-10-pxe-enabled-boot-client/

In general, if you have a smaller environment and you only need to deploy Windows 10 to a limited number of computers, the ADK is a good choice. But if you have a larger environment with a significant number of computers to manage, WDS is a better choice as it provides more advanced features such as multicast deployment, PXE boot, and remote installation.

According to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/deploy-windows-mdt/prepare-for-windows-deployment-with-mdt both WDS and ADK are required. Which makes this an riddle instead of question. My pick is ADK because WDS is for PXE boot which doesn't do in-place upgrades.

If they now run the Windows 8.1 image then the ADK should be updates anyway. My pick - Install ADK - Win10 image and task sequence only Nowhere on this site is WDS mentioned. WDS is specific to install computers over the network with PXE boot.

I agree with Bensrayan. It is necessary to update the ADK which is mandatory and which is related to the version of Windows to deploy
