Question

When you use DISM to apply an answer file to an image, the:

a. Image size increases
b. Image size decreases
c. Image remains the same
d. Image becomes corrupted

Answer 1

Using DISM to apply an answer file to an image generally increases the image size due to the addition of new settings and content.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you use DISM (Deployment Image Service and Management Tool) to apply an answer file to an image, typically the image size increases. This is because the answer file can contain customization and configuration settings such as additional drivers, updates, or applications that add to the content of the image, resulting in a larger file. Applying an answer file does not inherently corrupt the image, and whether the file size decreases or remains the same would depend on the specific changes being made, but generally adding content increases the size.
