AZ-140 practice questions

Q: Is this AZ-140 practice test free?

Yes. All 15 AZ-140 practice questions on this page are free, with instant scoring and a written explanation for each answer. You do not need an account and there is no time limit.

Q: How much does the real AZ-140 exam cost?

The official price is $165. Cyber VK sells the same official AZ-140 voucher for $44.99 — a saving of $120.01. The voucher is identical to one bought direct and is emailed within minutes of payment.

Q: Are these questions the same as the real AZ-140 exam?

No. These are original practice questions written to match the published exam objectives and difficulty. They are not real exam questions — sharing or reproducing live exam content breaches every certification body's candidate agreement and can void your certification.

Q: How should I use this practice test?

Use it as a readiness check rather than a study tool. Work through the questions without notes, read the explanation for every answer including the ones you got right, and treat any domain where you miss more than a third as the area to revise before booking your exam.

Question 1

A company needs each of its 40 developers to keep the software, settings, and local data they install on their remote desktop between sessions. Which Azure Virtual Desktop host pool type should you deploy?

Accepted Answer

Personal host pools dedicate one session host to one user permanently, so any installed software and local data persists across sessions; pooled hosts are multi-session and non-persistent.

Question 2

You manage a pooled host pool of 10 multi-session hosts. Management wants to minimize the number of running VMs so that a scaling plan can shut down unused hosts and reduce Azure compute cost. Which load balancing algorithm should you configure?

Accepted Answer

Depth-first fills each session host up to its max session limit before sending users to the next host, concentrating sessions so idle hosts can be deallocated for cost savings.

Question 3

You must deploy identical session hosts from a custom Windows 11 multi-session image into host pools in East US, West Europe, and Southeast Asia, while supporting versioning and rollback of the image. What should you use?

Accepted Answer

Azure Compute Gallery supports image definitions with multiple versions and automatic multi-region replication, which enables consistent large-scale deployment plus rollback to a prior version.

Question 4

Which statement correctly describes the inbound network requirements for Azure Virtual Desktop session hosts using the reverse connect transport?

Accepted Answer

Reverse connect has the session host establish an outbound HTTPS (443) connection to the AVD gateway, so no inbound ports need to be exposed on the VMs.

Question 5

You want to enable RDP Shortpath for managed networks so that clients connected over ExpressRoute get a direct UDP connection to the session hosts. Which inbound rule must you allow on the session host network security group?

Accepted Answer

RDP Shortpath for managed networks uses a direct UDP listener on the session host at port 3390, which must be reachable from the client network over the private connection.

Question 6

You are implementing Azure Private Link for Azure Virtual Desktop so that all client traffic stays on the private network. Which statement about the required private endpoint sub-resources is correct?

Accepted Answer

The 'global' sub-resource handles the initial feed discovery request for the whole deployment and is limited to a single private endpoint, while 'feed' is per workspace and 'connection' is per host pool.

Question 7

Your session hosts are Microsoft Entra ID joined. Which Azure RBAC role must users be granted on the session host VMs so they can sign in as standard users?

Accepted Answer

Entra ID join uses Azure RBAC for VM sign-in, and Virtual Machine User Login grants standard (non-administrator) sign-in rights to the session host.

Question 8

A helpdesk group must be able to see published desktops in their Remote Desktop client feed, but must not be able to modify host pool settings. What is the least-privileged assignment?

Accepted Answer

Desktop Virtualization User assigned at the application group scope is the role that publishes resources to a user's feed without granting any management permissions.

Question 9

Single sign-on is enabled for a host pool with Microsoft Entra ID joined session hosts. Security requires multifactor authentication to be re-evaluated when a user authenticates to the session host itself, not just to the AVD feed. Which cloud apps should the Conditional Access policy target?

Accepted Answer

With single sign-on, the session host authentication is issued to the Microsoft Remote Desktop and Windows Cloud Login apps, so those must be targeted for the policy to apply at host sign-in.

Question 10

What is the primary purpose of FSLogix profile containers in a pooled Azure Virtual Desktop deployment?

Accepted Answer

FSLogix stores the user profile in a VHDX on an SMB share and attaches it at sign-in, giving users a consistent profile no matter which pooled host they land on.

Question 11

A pooled host pool already publishes a full desktop to the Finance group. You must also publish only Microsoft Excel to the Contractors group from the same host pool. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

A host pool supports only one desktop application group, but multiple RemoteApp application groups, so publishing individual apps requires a RemoteApp application group.

Question 12

You configure app attach with packaged application images stored on an Azure Files share joined to AD DS. Users report that the applications never appear in their sessions, and event logs show access denied when mounting the image. What is the most likely cause?

Accepted Answer

The image is mounted by the session host machine, not the user, so the session hosts' computer accounts must have read access to the share and its NTFS permissions.

Question 13

You want to use Azure Virtual Desktop Insights to view connection and session host performance data. What must you configure first?

Accepted Answer

AVD Insights is a workbook built on Log Analytics, so diagnostic settings for AVD objects and performance counters must send data into a Log Analytics workspace before any data appears.

Question 14

You create an autoscale scaling plan for a pooled host pool, but session hosts are never started or stopped and the plan reports errors. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Autoscale acts through the Azure Virtual Desktop service principal, which needs the Desktop Virtualization Power On Off Contributor role on the subscription containing the session hosts.

Question 15

You must replace the image on five session hosts in a production pooled host pool during business hours with the least disruption to signed-in users. What should you do first?

Accepted Answer

Drain mode stops new connections from being routed to those hosts while existing sessions continue uninterrupted, letting users finish naturally before the hosts are replaced.
