Your Microsoft Windows Client Questions, Answered
Microsoft Windows Client is an official Microsoft exam, registered under the code MD-100. A passing score earns you the Microsoft 365 Certified: Modern Desktop Administrator Associate certification, positioned at the Associate level. The credential also connects to MD-101, Microsoft 365 Certified: Modern Desktop Administrator Associate, so it can anchor a broader certification path. Because Microsoft designs its exams around real job tasks, holding this certification signals practical skill rather than memorized theory.
Candidates face 40-60 (varies) questions inside a 100-150 window on the Microsoft Windows Client exam. That ratio leaves little slack, which is why pacing deserves as much practice as the content itself. Learn to budget your minutes, park stubborn questions instead of wrestling them, and rehearse under a real clock: a few timed runs in the ActualCollection test engine will make the official time limit feel routine rather than threatening.

That makes honest self-testing the cheapest insurance available, so hold off on booking until your ActualCollection practice scores sit clearly above the passing line, attempt after attempt.
