Rebooting a computer simply means restarting the computer which will leave all your files intact. Restoring a computer however, restores your computer back to how it was when it left the factory meaning all additional added data by yourself and others would be completely erased.

Generally, no. Some files may not have been saved to the disk, files that you were actually working on at the time for instance; but normally, any file that has been saved to the disk will not be affected by a reboot.

No, simply rebooting your computer (turning it off, then on again) does not erase all the data on the computer.

What does it mean when your computer says its taking a memory dump after running a program meant to search your computer for files?

It's just a way your computer "gathers itself up" after a huge memory loss. You probably have a program that takes alot of memory, and your computer is trying to find more to burn and waste. If you suddenly lose alot of memory, enough to NOT run programs, your computer will shut down, losing everything. That is why it tries to rebuild its memory so you don't haveta experience it's failure because you have a effin memory taking program. (no offence)
