Building on the previous episode, this one zooms in on specific Windows features that frequently appear on the exam. We explain domain membership and why joining a domain is essential for centralized user management in enterprise environments. You’ll also learn about BitLocker encryption—how it protects data at rest, when it’s available, and what hardware it requires.

We also cover Remote Desktop Protocol—where it’s used, how to configure it, and what limitations exist in different Windows editions. The episode concludes with an overview of user interface differences, including Windows Settings versus Control Panel, and how to navigate between them during support sessions. These features come up often in Core 2 questions, especially when selecting the best edition for a given use case. Brought to you by BareMetalCyber.com.
