The correct answer is C. Change the retention label of the files.

Explanation: Retention labels are a feature in Microsoft 365 that allow organizations to apply retention settings to content, such as documents and email messages. When a retention label is applied to content, it can help ensure that the content is retained for a specific period of time, deleted at the end of its life cycle, or preserved for legal or regulatory reasons.

In this scenario, the legal files stored in the SharePoint Online document library are marked with a retention label as regulatory records. This means that the content of these files must be retained for a specific period of time to comply with regulatory requirements.

If you need to make changes to the legal files, such as renaming or editing their properties, you can do so without affecting the retention label. However, if you want to change the retention label of the files, you must ensure that the new retention label also meets the legal and regulatory requirements for the content.

Copying the content of the files is not necessary in this scenario, as the retention label applies to the content itself, not the document name or location. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Change the retention label of the files.
