How can advanced users navigate their Time Machine backups?

  1. By using System Preferences.

  2. Via the Finder.

  3. Through iCloud Drive.

  4. Using Migration Assistant only.

The correct answer is: Via the Finder.

Advanced users can navigate their Time Machine backups via the Finder, which offers a straightforward interface to access and manage backup files. When connecting a Time Machine drive, it appears on the desktop and in the Finder sidebar, allowing users to enter the backup folder. From here, they can browse through folders organized by date and easily retrieve or restore specific files or previous versions of documents. Navigating through the Finder also provides features such as searching for files, previewing them, and opening them directly from the backup, which is especially useful for users looking for a particular item. The direct access and versatility of the Finder make it the ideal option for advanced users who want to efficiently scan their Time Machine backups. The other options are less suited for this purpose. System Preferences primarily manage Time Machine settings rather than navigating the backups. iCloud Drive is a separate service that does not relate to Time Machine backups. Migration Assistant is designed for transferring data, rather than for directly navigating or managing backups, making it not suitable for this task.
