Manually shutting down the computer (as in holding the power button until it shuts off, pulling the plug, or your PC has a toggle power switch) is an improper way of shutting down your PC.
It can cause corruption in your operating system, and possibly a non-working computer upon restart. Many save manually turning a system off for when it is an emergency such as your computer froze and you can not repair it via input devices.
General computer practice says generally not to perform a shut down manually. Most new computers come with reset switches in case of emergency, also the buttons are not toggle, and most operating systems allow you to begin the proper shut down procedure simply by pressing the power button once.
