[All 70-742 Questions]

Your company recently deployed a new child domain to an Active Directory forest.
You discover that a user modified the Default Domain Policy to configure several Windows components in the child domain.
A company policy states that the Default Domain Policy must be used only to configure domain-wide security settings.
You create a new Group Policy object (GPO) and configure the settings for the Windows components in the new GPO.
You need to restore the Default Domain Policy to the default settings from when the domain was first installed.
What should you do?

  • A. From Group Policy Management, click Starter GPOs, and then click Manage Backups.
  • B. From a command prompt, run the dcgpofix.exe command.
  • C. From Windows PowerShell, run the Copy-GPO cmdlet.
  • D. Run ntdsutil.exe to perform a metadata cleanup and a semantic database analysis.

Yep. From the Microsoft official exam reference: If you wish to restore only one or the other default GPO, run the DCGPOFix command with the following parameters:  /target:Domain Resets only the Default Domain Policy.  /target:DC Resets only the Default Domain Controllers Policy.

As a best practice, you should configure the Default Domain Policy GPO only to manage the default Account Policies settings, Password Policy, Account Lockout Policy, and Kerberos Policy. Additionally, you should configure the Default Domain Controllers Policy GPO only to set user rights and audit policies.

It can be true, but the question did not tell you that there is a backup, but good point.

You could perform a restore of a GPO by importing it from a previously exported backup, however that is not what A is suggesting. B is the correct answer because dcgpofix.exe is specifically used to target and restore either the Default Domain Policy, the Default Domain Controller Policy, or both.
