Microsoft Configuring and Operating Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop Exam FAQ: What Candidates Ask Most

What is the Microsoft AZ-140 exam?

The AZ-140 exam is the official Microsoft exam behind the Microsoft Certified: Azure Virtual Desktop Specialty certification, validating the skills measured by the Microsoft Configuring and Operating Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop credential. It sits at the Specialty level of the Microsoft certification program. It also connects to Microsoft Certified: Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104), so the knowledge you build here carries over to those tracks as well.

How many questions are on the AZ-140 exam, and how much time do I get?

The AZ-140 exam contains Approximately 40–60 questions to be completed within 120 minutes. Before exam day, divide the available time by the question count to work out a comfortable per-question pace, and mark any item that eats into it so you can return later instead of getting stuck. Timed sessions in the Getcertkey test engines make that pacing automatic — run at least two full-length mock exams under the clock so time pressure never becomes the reason you drop points.

What score do I need to pass the AZ-140 exam, and what does it cost?

The passing score for the AZ-140 exam is 700 (on a scale of 1000), and the official registration fee is USD 165 (varies by country/region). Retakes are not discounted — every new attempt means paying the full fee again — so it pays to measure yourself before you book. Work through the 380 practice questions on Getcertkey, sit a timed practice test, and schedule your exam only when your scores are consistently comfortable. That simple habit is the cheapest exam strategy there is.

Are there any prerequisites for the AZ-140 exam?

No mandatory prerequisites, but AZ-104 (Microsoft Azure Administrator) or equivalent knowledge is strongly recommended. Requirements can change when Microsoft revises its certification program, so confirm the current eligibility rules on the official exam page before you register.

Can I try the AZ-140 practice questions before I buy?

The guarantee does not apply to exams taken within three days of purchase, to material that was downloaded but never used in an exam attempt, or to free products and expired orders, and the candidate name must match the payer name.
