A company rolls out a mandatory OS update to all PCs.

The best answer is B. Moving to a supported system under a Type 2 hypervisor. The issue is application compatibility after an OS update. The Quentin Docter study guide explains that application virtualization is commonly used for legacy software or a legacy OS because older applications often run only on older operating systems. It further explains that virtualization allows users to run multiple environments without buying extra hardware, which directly matches the requirement for minimal cost and disruption. A Type 2 hypervisor runs on top of an existing host operating system, making it suitable for a department workstation scenario because users can keep the new supported OS while accessing the legacy application in a virtualized environment. A bare-metal Type 1 hypervisor is usually server-side and would be more disruptive and expensive. Migrating to a new product and importing data may be the long-term answer, but it introduces higher cost, retraining, and possible data loss. A private cloud does not solve OS compatibility by itself.
