Learning the Basics
Powering down the computer
When you start up again, the computer runs a self-test and loads
the operating system. You must open any programs and files you
want to use.
Factors when choosing Turn Off or Shut down:
❖
No power is used while the computer is shut down. This is the
most efficient mode if you will be away from your computer
for an extended time.
❖
Restarting from Turn Off or Shut down uses the most time
and battery power.
❖
When starting up again, the system does not automatically
open programs and files you were using.
To power down the computer using the Turn Off Computer
command, click Start, Turn Off Computer, and select Turn Off.

NOTE: Holding the shift key while the Turn Off computer
Windows dialog box is open, changes the Stand By button to
hibernate. For more information about setting up hibernation
