Is it really the question from the exam ? Because I can’t believe VMware-Edu folks are so careless or stupid or perhaps even both…
‘B’ – “use update instead of install” -> “update” is already in the command indicated in the question. Did they mean to say “use “install” instead of “update”” ??
‘C’ – “use switch -d instead of -v ” -> again, -d is already part of the question ! Did they mean “use switch -v instead of -d” ??………..

I would assume those are the Qs which are in the category “confuse the candidate”. Because if you rush you could easily select an answer which “looks” correct but it is not as it does not relate properly to the question. Or some provisioned psychological techniques implemented in the exams. OK, it could have been a typo (or even two), but there is only one correct answer with those, isn’t it? 🙂
