Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. All domain controllers run
Windows Server 2012 R2. The domain contains 500 client computers that run Windows 8.1
Enterprise and Microsoft Office 2013.
You implement a Group Policy central store.
You need to modify the default Microsoft Office 2013 Save As location for all client computers. The
solution must minimize administrative effort.
What should you configure in a Group Policy object (GPO)?
A.
The Group Policy preferences
B.
An application control policy
C.
The Administrative Templates
D.
The Software Installation settings
Explanation:
Group Policy preferences provide the means to simplify deployment and standardize configurations.
They add to Group Policy a centralized system for deploying preferences (that is, settings that users
can change later). You can also use Group Policy preferences to configure applications that are not
Group Policy-aware. By using Group Policy preferences, you can change or delete almost any registry
setting, file or folder, shortcut, and more. You are not limited by the contents of Administrative
Template files.http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn581922.aspx
A.
The Group Policy preferences
The Administrative Templates
A
I believe the answer is C.
For Microsoft Office 2013, you can download Administrative Template files (ADMX, ADML) of the Microsoft site and copy it to the central store. Then numerous guidelines for configuring Microsoft Office and the Microsoft Office applications are available in the Administrative Templates of your GPOs.
Microsoft chose not to include the option to change the default in Group Policy. The settings can be configured in the Registry which means they can be manipulated by Group Policy Preferences.

IMHO this is not the least administrative effort….
….therefore I’ll go with C –> download Administrative Template files and copying them into the central store.

I also think the answer is C. Office 2013 or 2016 won’t show up in the preferences because there is no way for group policy to know that it is installed. It does not add anything to group policy editor. So you need to download the template ADMX files and configure and add them to the central store. Then you can configure it.

a is wrong.
Answer : C. The Administrative Templates
(To download the template *.admx files)
Answer is A
Looks like the link http://trekker.net/archives/set-the-default-save-location-to-computer-in-office-2013/ is being used to say that the answer given is right and the answer given is wrong.
The site clearly says “However, Microsoft chose not to include the option to change the default in Group Policy. The good news is that the settings can be configured in the Registry which means they can be manipulated by Group Policy Preferences.”
Admin template don’t include a default save location
