What is the process of performing a repair to an operating system while the system stays in operation called?
  1. Service packing
  2. Hotfix
  3. Upgrading
  4. File update
Explanation
Answer - B - A hotfix is done while a system is operating. This reduces the necessity of taking a system out of service to fix a problem.

Key Takeaway: Hotfix is a code designed to fix a bug in a product. Consumers may be notified by e-mail or obtain information about current hotfixes at a software vendor's Web site and download links to the fix. The prime advantage to a hotfix is the fact that the computer can be kept operational while the fix is performed.
