Answer is C Why other options are incorrect: A. Restore after deleting the infected VM → Risky. You might lose reference data (like VM ID or associated configurations). Better to restore to a new VM first and then clean up the old one. B. Restore the VM to any VM → You can recover files to another VM, but not the entire VM. This is not suitable in a ransomware recovery situation where the whole system needs to be replaced. D. Restore to an on-premise Windows device → Azure VM full restore is designed for restoring in Azure, not on-premises (though file-level recovery can be downloaded locally, that's not relevant here).
When dealing with a VM infected with ransomware, the safest and most effective approach is to restore the VM to a new Azure VM
Restoring to an on-premises server is possible but involves significant compatibility, complexity, and performance issues, making it impractical for disaster recovery scenarios. Restoring the VM to a new Azure VM (option C) is the most efficient and reliable choice in this situation.
