Answer: B
A retention date will ensure that a file cannot be
overwritten before that date has passed. The retention date
will not affect the ability to read the file. Backup copies
would be expected to have a different retention date and
therefore may well be retained after the file has been
overwritten. The creation date, not the retention date, will
differentiate files with the same name.
