Answer: D

Explanation:

Enable Active Write-Back to allow Citrix UPM to synchronize profile data during the user session, instead of waiting to synchronize the entire profile upon user logout. This prevents profiles from not synchronizing all data and from being corrupted. Active Write-Back prevents this by synchronizing files during the entire user session, so when the user logs off, there will be minimal profile data (if any) that must be synchronized. A direct benefit of this setting is that if a virtual desktop crashes or gets reset instead of properly shutdown, users need not have to worry about files not being synchronized.
