By default,
clicking the Shut down button closes Windows
and turns off your computer. (To find the Shut down button, click the Start button .)
You can also turn off a desktop computer by pressing the power
button on the computer case. Pressing the power button on the edge of a laptop
puts the computer into an energy-saving mode called sleep. Sleep automatically preserves open documents and
programs in memory
and shuts down all nonessential functions. The advantage of sleep is that it
takes only seconds to restore your computer to where you left off and uses a
very small amount of electricity.
For information about how to change what happens when you press
the power button on your computer or the Shut down button on the Start menu, see
Change what
happens when you press the power button on your computer.
Note
-
Always save open files before putting your computer into sleep or hibernation. Before shutting down your computer, save files, and then close any open programs.
