Best Answer

with the off button

The safest way to shut down a computer is to use the operating system to properly shut it down. If you use Windows OS then you would go to your start button, click it, and go into <Shut Down>. For there you can choose Shut Down, Restart, Etc. These methods will save any data that you have not saved yet, close programs that are open, and properly shut the computer down.

For most Windows applications

Click the start button on the bottom left of the screen

When the menu pops up, locate where it says "Shut Down", click it and another menu pops up.

Select "Shut Down" from drop down list and click "OK"

You go to Start menu and click 'turn off computer' and wait. A Pop-up will come up click shut down on the pop-up. If your computer is froze or won't do this hold the power button down until your computer turns off. You go to Start menu and click 'turn off computer' and wait.

The safest way - is by clicking Start, then selecting Shut down. This performs two essential functions... First, it closed all open programs and files properly - Second, it cuts power to the hard-drive and other external components, safely and in a set order.

Switching off your computer manually, without Windows going through the shut-down procedure, can damage your hard-drive - and perhaps corrupt important files.

Logically, consistently, and often. This simple task helps your PC to stay cleaner. Daily is sufficient unless you are installing a lot of software, then more frequently.

Note: When I have my "full scan" scheduled (Virus software) and scheduled maintenance; when complete once/wk the PC will turn itself off. I shutdown each night otherwise.

Generally, we close the computer by click Start-Power-Shut Down. This is the safest way to shut down computer when you do not want to use.

Today, I want to recommend you a program Wise Auto Shutdown. It is one

convenient and automatic PC shutdown tool to easily schedule your computer to Shut down, Log-off, Restart, Sleep, Hibernate, Lock Screen, and close power at any time you want. If you are interested in it, you can try it by downloading it on the official website of WiseCleaner.
