Remote Virtual Desktop Model is best described by which of the following?

• A. Delivers the desktop environment as a streaming session from the data center.
• B. Runs all software directly on the user's device with no central server.
• C. Only applications are delivered remotely; desktops run locally.
• D. Copies the desktop image to a local machine prior to being used by the end user.

Answer: (D)

Remote virtual desktops are desktops hosted in a data center and accessed from a client device. The desktop image is prepared and delivered to the endpoint so the user can interact with it remotely, often by streaming or caching the image on the local device to speed up startup and responsiveness. This staging of the desktop image on the client before use best describes the model, since it emphasizes having a local copy on the endpoint while the work still runs on the central server. The other descriptions describe streaming, local execution, or only apps being delivered, but they don’t capture the aspect of staging the full desktop image on the user’s machine.
