    • Run Bcdedit.exe and the /bootems parameter

    Correct Answer
    A. Run Bcdedit.exe and the /default parameter.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is to run Bcdedit.exe and the /default parameter. Bcdedit.exe is a command-line tool used to manage the Boot Configuration Data (BCD) store in Windows. By using the /default parameter, you can set the default operating system that will start when the computer boots up. In this case, you want to set Windows Vista as the default operating system. Creating a boot.ini file in either the Windows 7 or Windows Vista partition is not the correct action to ensure that Windows Vista starts by default. The /bootems parameter is also not relevant to this situation.
