4.When is the most important time to restore a file from your backup?

On a regular scheduled basis to verify that the data is available.
When the system crashes.
When a user inadvertently loses a file.
When your boss asks to see how restoring a file works.

Explanation: According to 'best practice', you should regularly restore files to verify that your backup procedures are working. It's no good backing up files regularly if you are unable to restore files when needed.

Incorrect Answers:
B: When the system crashes, you may need to restore your whole system. However, this shouldn't be the only time you restore files.
C: When a user loses a file, it will need to be restored. However, you should prepare for this eventuality by regularly testing your backup/restore process to ensure you are able to restore a file when needed.
D: When your boss asks to see how restoring a file works, you want it to work when you show him. This is why you should test your backup/restore processes.
