A. B. C. D.C
When you redeploy a VM, the original VM is deleted and a new VM is created in its place. The new VM will have the default configuration settings and any data or configurations made on the original VM will be lost.
In this scenario, the VM was deployed using default drive settings, which means that drive C and drive D were created using the default configurations.
User1 created files on both drive C and drive D, and also modified the screen saver timeout and changed the desktop background.
Of the four actions performed by User1, the new files on drive C and drive D will be lost when the VM is redeployed because they were created on the disks attached to the original VM. The modified screen saver timeout and changed desktop background settings will also be lost because these settings were made on the original VM's operating system configuration.
Therefore, the correct answer is D. The new files on drive C and C. The new files on drive D, the modified screen saver timeout, and the new desktop background will all be lost after redeploying the VM.
