Shutting down the computer
It’s a good idea to turn off your computer when you’re not using it
for a while.
The Shut down command is the normal way to turn off your
computer. You may also use Standby or Hibernation modes to
place the computer in a low energy state which can be quickly
reactivated. For more information on Standby or Hibernation
modes, see
