Wrong answer, the file would be in .wfw format.

From your link:
[Path]FileName
Required. Specifies, by name, the file where the Windows Firewall with Advanced Security configuration will be written. If the path, file name, or both contain spaces, quotation marks must be used. If you do not specify Path then the command places the file in your current folder. The recommended file name extension is .wfw.

.wfw seems to be recommended, not compulsory. That would make A a valid option.

Go into advanced firewall settings in the control panel of the reference computer. Export an xxx.wfw file. You can import this file into a GPO.
