SC-300 Certification Practice Question #267

Question

You have 2,500 users who are assigned Microsoft Office 365 Enterprise E3 licenses. The licenses are assigned to individual users.

From the Groups blade in the Microsoft Entra admin center, you assign Microsoft Office 365 Enterprise E5 licenses to a group that includes all users.

You need to remove the Office 365 Enterprise E3 licenses from the users by using the least amount of administrative effort.

What should you use?

Accepted Answer

The E3 licenses are assigned directly to 2,500 individual users, while E5 is now assigned via a group. A directly assigned license cannot be removed from the group; it must be removed from each user. `Set-MgUserLicense -RemoveLicenses` is the Microsoft Graph PowerShell cmdlet that removes a directly-assigned SKU, and it can be scripted across all users in one pass — the least-effort approach. The other three options are unrelated to license removal, making A unambiguous. Both the official Suggested Answer and the in-file Most Voted marker agree, grounded by the MS Learn cmdlet reference.
