  • 2. 

    Program commands in the Start menu are like light switches to launch programs.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The explanation for the given correct answer is that program commands in the Start menu function as triggers to initiate the launch of programs. Similar to how flipping a light switch activates the lighting in a room, selecting a program command from the Start menu prompts the program to start running on the computer. Therefore, the statement "Program commands in the Start menu are like light switches to launch programs" is true.

    A Jump List can provide quick access to recently used files.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    A Jump List is a feature in Windows that allows users to quickly access recently used files and frequently accessed tasks in a specific application. It provides a convenient way to navigate through files and tasks without having to open the application first. By right-clicking on the application's icon in the taskbar or Start menu, users can access the Jump List and easily open their recently used files. Therefore, the statement that "A Jump List can provide quick access to recently used files" is true.

    Which quick-sizing button minimizes a window?

    • A. Close

    • B. Minimize

    • C. Drop down arrow

    • D. Maximize

    Correct Answer
    A. B. Minimize
    Explanation
    The quick-sizing button that minimizes a window is the "Minimize" button. This button reduces the window to a smaller size, allowing other windows or desktop icons to be more visible. It does not close the window completely, but rather hides it from view temporarily. This is a useful feature when you want to keep a window open but don't need to actively use it at the moment. The other options, such as "Close", "Drop down arrow", and "Maximize", do not perform the same function as the "Minimize" button.

    Which is not a quick sizing button?

    • A. restore down

    • B.maximize

    • C. Drop down arrow

    • D. close

    Correct Answer
    A. C. Drop down arrow
    Explanation
    The drop-down arrow is not a quick sizing button because it does not directly control the size or position of the window. The restore down button is used to reduce the size of a maximized window, the maximize button is used to maximize the window, and the close button is used to close the window. However, the drop-down arrow typically indicates a menu or a list of options, rather than directly adjusting the window size.

    What happens if a program command is in the pinned program area of the Start menu?

    • A. It stays until the computer is shut down

    • B. The program command is locked until it is unpinned

    • C. The program launches when the computer is started

    • D. It stays there until it is unpinned

    Correct Answer
    A. D. It stays there until it is unpinned
    Explanation
    When a program command is in the pinned program area of the Start menu, it will remain there until it is manually unpinned. This means that even if the computer is shut down and restarted, the program command will still be visible in the pinned program area. The user has to specifically choose to remove it by unpinning it from the Start menu.

    Using Minimize, Maximize, and Restore Down to re-size a window is called multitasking

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Using Minimize, Maximize, and Restore Down to resize a window is not called multitasking. Multitasking refers to the ability of a system to run multiple tasks or processes simultaneously. Resizing a window using these options is simply a way to manage the display of a single task or process, not perform multiple tasks at the same time.

    Aero 3D Flip is not available on all versions of Win 7. 

    • True

    • False

    A. True
    Explanation
    The Aero 3D Flip feature is not available on all versions of Windows 7. This means that some versions of Windows 7 do not support the Aero 3D Flip feature.

  • 9. 

    How can you tell if a program is active?

    • A. The window will be the biggest.

    • B. Its name is grayed out

    • C. Its program button will look brighter on the Windows 7 taskbar

    • D. all of the above.

    Correct Answer
    A. C. Its program button will look brighter on the Windows 7 taskbar
    Explanation
    When a program is active on Windows 7, its program button on the taskbar will appear brighter compared to other program buttons. This visual cue allows users to easily identify which program is currently active and being used. The size of the window or the grayed-out name of the program are not reliable indicators of program activity. Therefore, the correct answer is c. Its program button will look brighter on the Windows 7 taskbar.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    If you open three programs, you will have three active program windows.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Opening three programs does not necessarily mean that there will be three active program windows. It is possible for a program to open without displaying a separate window, or for multiple programs to share the same window. Therefore, the statement is false.
