You have a computer named Computer1 that runs Windows 10.
Computer1 has two volumes named C and D. Volume C is formatted NTFS and volume D is formatted exFAT.
You need to ensure that you can recover files stored in D:\\Data.
What should you use?
A.
System Restore points
B.
File History
C.
wbadmin.exe
D.
Backup and Restore (Windows 7)
seems correct

I couldn’t find a lot of information about backing up an exFAT partitioned drive on the internet, it mostly shows me 3rd party apps for doing so(and not that many of them).
I tried to replicate the situation(multiple times, with different configuration -exfat volume part of C drive or on its own disk, or as a usb flash drive), but it didn’t allow me to backup the exfat volume/partition. None of the options worked:
-System Restore didn’t show me an option to include the exfat disk/volume/partition
-File History, adding the location to the Backup in the Settings app gave me an error 0x80070032, also adding the folder to the documents library didn’t made any difference
-wbadmin told me that the location is not formatted correctly and it has to be in NTFS or ReFS
-Backup and Restore (Windows 7) – didn’t gave me the option to include the exfat location as well
So.. It is either the guy who made this test wrote the question wrong(or the answers), or due to using virtual environment(or in general) something didn’t work right on my part, although I’m pretty confident I did everything as well as possible.
If anyone has any better ideas, I’m open to hear them.

Backup and Restore only works with NTFS file system. Wbadmin also
so file history is must be the correct answer

I will go for B. File History.
explanation: File History is an awesome tool included in all versions of Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. It allows for easy automated backups of your data and it works with a number of devices on which data can be stored.

All four answers are incorrect, just like darak already stated. Question seems wrong.
File History needs NTFS. When trying to recreate this scenario and I want to enable File History, Windows states: “File History has found files that are encrypted with Encryption File System, on a network location, or on a drive that doesn’t use the NTFS file system. These files won’t be backed up.”. With Backup and Restore (Windows 7) you can not chose the drive with exFat directly to include in the backup. Including it in a library also does not work because after making the backup it gives in the log “Windows Backup skipped E:\Photos because it is on drive E:\, which is not a supported drive type.”. System restore only gives drive C as available drive. webadmin also does not work: “One of the source volumes specified has an invalid format and cannot be protected using Windows Backup. Only volumes formatted with NTFS/ReFS can be protected.”

Well…SOMEONE thinks it can be used: https://www.thurrott.com/windows/1981/backup-strategies-file-history
I’m fairly sure that that flashcard he shows (especially in 2015) wasn’t using NTFS–but I could be wrong. So, if he got it to write to a non-NTFS disk, it stands to reason….well we ARE talking about Microswift here–reason sort of does go out of the door. I’m going to go with File History if presented with this question… better to select something and be wrong than select nothing and be wrong.
