A. B. C. D.A.
When a file is moved from one NTFS (New Technology File System) disk to another NTFS disk, the file permissions for that file may change. NTFS is a file system used by Windows operating systems that provides enhanced security features such as file permissions, encryption, and compression.
The correct answer is D. The file receives the destination permissions.
When a file is moved to a new location on an NTFS file system, it inherits the permissions of the parent folder at the new location. If the destination folder has different permissions than the source folder, the file's permissions will change to match those of the destination folder.
For example, if the source folder has read and write permissions for the user, but the destination folder only has read permissions for the user, the moved file will also only have read permissions for the user.
It's worth noting that if the file is copied instead of moved, the file will keep its original permissions. Additionally, if the destination folder has inheritance blocked, the file will keep its original permissions.
Therefore, in summary, when a file is moved from one NTFS disk to another NTFS disk, the file permissions change to match the permissions of the destination folder.
