After deleting the "Service 1.5" snapshot, which snapshot remains as the current state of the virtual machine?

When a snapshot is deleted in a virtual machine environment, it removes that specific state of the virtual machine, but the earlier or later snapshots remain intact and accessible. In this scenario, if "Service 1.5" is deleted, the snapshots that would remain are those that are not directly related to the deleted snapshot.

If "Service 1.5" is deleted, the current state of the virtual machine would revert to the most recent snapshot prior to the deletion. Therefore, if "Service 2" existed after "Service 1.5", it would become the new current state. If "Service 1.5" is the snapshot in question, once deleted, "Service 2" can be interacted with as the latest state.

In this case, if you are considering what remains as the most recent state, it cannot be "Service 1.5" as it has been deleted. So, "Service 2" remains as this latest state of the virtual machine.

Thus, the correct answer should refer to "Service 2" since it exists as the most recent snapshot after the deletion of "Service 1.5," highlighting that deletion affects only the specific snapshot and not the entire chain of snapshots.
