D is correct. Source: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/purview/retention?tabs=table-overriden#the-principles-of-retention-or-what-takes-precedence quote: "Example for this first principle: An email message is subject to a retention policy for Exchange that is configured to delete items three years after they are created, and it also has a retention label applied that is configured to retain items five years after they are created. The email message is retained for five years because this retention action takes precedence over deletion. The email message is permanently deleted at the end of the five years because of the delete action that was suspended while the retention action was in effect.

An example from Microsoft explains it very clear: An email message is subject to a retention policy for Exchange that is configured to delete items three years after they are created, and it also has a retention label applied that is configured to retain items five years after they are created. The email message is retained for five years because this retention action takes precedence over deletion. The email message is permanently deleted at the end of the five years because of the delete action that was suspended while the retention action was in effect.

I think E. As Policy2 has priority because it retains the file for a longer period, and retention always wins over deletion.

In Microsoft, if two retention policies are applied to the same content, and one policy is set to "delete" while the other is set to "do nothing," the "do nothing" policy will not take precedence; the "delete" policy will always win, meaning the content will be deleted according to the deletion policy. This is because "retention" generally takes precedence over "deletion" in Microsoft's retention policies.

Since Policy 1 specifies automatic deletion after 1 year from the creation date, File1.docx will be deleted on January 1, 2023.

Since Policy2 retains the file for 2 years from the last modified date and does nothing at the end, this policy ensures that the file remains in place for at least 2 years. Policy1, which requires deletion after 1 year, is overridden by Policy2 because retention (Policy2) is a more conservative action compared to deletion. Therefore, Policy2 has priority because it retains the file for a longer period, and retention always wins over deletion. Correct answer: E. Never.

Retention action takes precedence over deletion.

Or to retain without an end date, select Retain items forever on this page.

After 1 year the file would be deleted if not modified. Since it was modified the retention period takes precedence. However it is still flagged for deletion so once the retention period is up it will then be deleted.

E is correct

E- I believe because as others have noted....retention wins over deletion.

Answer is A. January 1 2023. The question is concerned exactly will the file be deleted not modified which it will take 1 year retention period and the deletion took place automatically according to the information in the table

Gbartumeu provides the perfect example. Just look at his article and do a find for "suspended". Second hit.

E is correct answer: Retention wins over deletion

Correct Answer is E Given the retention policies: Policy 1: Retains items for 1 year based on when they were created, and then deletes them automatically. Policy 2: Retains items for 2 years based on when they were last modified, and then does nothing. The file File1.docx was created on January 1, 2022, and last modified on January 31, 2022. According to Policy 1, the file would be deleted one year after its creation date, which would be January 1, 2023. However, Policy 2 retains the file for two years after its last modification date, which would be January 31, 2024. Since Policy 2 has a longer retention period and it is set to “Do Nothing” at the end of the retention period, the deletion action from Policy 1 will not take place. Therefore, File1.docx will not be deleted automatically. So, the correct answer is E. never.

rules retention takes precedence over deletion longest retention wins do nothing means that the file will remain as is until the user delete it (no retention policy applied)
