Your network contains an Active Directory domain named adatum.com. The domain contains a file server
named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2012 R2.
All client computers run Windows 7.
You need to ensure that user settings are saved to \\Server1\Users\.
What should you do?
A.
From the properties of each user account, configure the Home folder settings.
B.
From a Group Policy object (GPO), configure the Folder Redirection settings.
C.
From the properties of each user account, configure the User profile settings.
D.
From a Group Policy object (GPO), configure the Drive Maps preference.
Explanation:
If a computer is running Windows 2000 Server or later on a network, users can store their profiles on the
server. These profiles are called roaming user profiles.
Wouldn’t this answer be B? Create a GPO for folder redirection to redirect the users folders (documents, desktop, appdata,etc) to a share.

Nope because question clearly states that SETTINGS are to be saved, therefore User Profile.

To set up Roaming User Profiles on user accounts
In Active Directory Administration Center, navigate to the Users container (or OU) in the appropriate domain.
Select all users to which you want to assign a roaming user profile, right-click the users and then click Properties.
In the Profile section, select the Profile path: checkbox and then enter the path to the file share where you want to store the user’s roaming user profile, followed by %username% (which is automatically replaced with the user name the first time the user signs in). For example:
\\fs1.corp.contoso.com\User Profiles$\%username%
To specify a mandatory roaming user profile, specify the path to the NTuser.man file that you created previously, for example, \\fs1.corp.contoso.com\User Profiles$\default. For more information, see Creating a Mandatory User Profile.
Click OK.”

Answer is B.
Users settings and user files are typically stored in the local user profile, under the user folder. The files in local user profiles can be accessed only from the current computer, which makes it difficult for users who use more than one computer to work with their data and sync settings between multiple computers. Two technologies exists to adress this problem: Roaming Profiles and Folder Redirection.
Folder Redirection lets administrators redirect the path of a folder to a new location. This location can be a folder on the local computer or a directory on a network file share. Users can work with documents on a server as if the documents were based on a local drive. The documents in the folder are available to the user from any computer on the network. Folder Redirection is located under Windows Settings in the console tree when you edit domain-based group policy by using the GPMC.

It’s definitely C. Trying to setup roaming profiles, not folder redirection.

C is good answer.
Folder redirection is to redirect folders only, and only the ones you would to redirect (for example: My documents – yes, but Favorites – no). There is no any guarantee that all settings will be written to remote share.
From other hand – Roaming user profiles does that trick. All user settings are copied, including start menu customizations and etc:
“Roaming user profiles. These allow users to roam among computers within the corporate network. Users who have a roaming user profile (RUP) may log onto a computer, run applications and edit documents, and log off. At log off, their user profiles are copied to a server. When they log on to another computer, the profile information, including any Start menu customizations and the contents of the My Documents folder, are copied to the other computer.”

Solution with the least bandwidth usage has to be Folder redirection.
The best overall solution is Roaming profiles, but the first logon on a new computer is a lot longer.
