If power suddenly goes off and the file was not saved, this risk is related to which type of memory?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Temporary memory
While a file is being edited, unsaved changes are held temporarily in working memory and application buffers rather than safely written to permanent storage. A sudden power loss can therefore remove those changes. Saving regularly writes the work to persistent storage, so it can be recovered after restarting. The issue is not printer or paper storage.
