70-410 question doubt - pls clarify

I got a test exam material and I have 1 question like this -

Your network contains an AD named contoso.com. All servers run windows server 2012. The domain contains a server named Server1.
You open Review Options in the ADDS config wizard, and then you click view script.
You need to ensure that you can use the script to promote Server1 to a DC.
Which file extension should you use to save the script?
A - .pal
B - .bat
C - .xml
D - .cmd

I selected .xml, but its mentioned the correct answer is .pal ... Can you please help me in that...with some reference.

I can't be sure, but first answer that came to my mind is .xml format. What kind of file is .pal?

I answered that too...when I researched about .pal couldnt find anything related thats mentioned in this question.

I thought the 'view script' produces a powershell sequence in the form of a plain text file, so none of those answers make sense to me. I'm thinking where they put 'A -.pal' they should have put 'A - .txt' or 'A - .tmp' or however it saves it as default.

According to this link here, it should be Powershell extension...(btw toptech...how can we save that as .txt or .tmp

I don't see how this answer helps the poster of this question. Rather it brings confusion. The tool you mention is a third-party non-Microsoft application, so hardly likely to be in a MS exam. Furthermore, it states it's only tested in Windows 7, which is a different base platform to Windows 2012.

Yes the file should be a .ps1 PowerShell script. It's none of those answers given.

It's definately .ps1.
I'm assuming .pal was a typo since it looked similar to the idiot who wrote up the test.
