Why can turning off a computer by directly cutting power be wrong?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Open work or system may be affected
A forced power cut can discard unsaved work and interrupt updates or background operations. Repeatedly doing this may also risk file-system errors or data corruption, especially when the computer is writing data. Using the operating system’s Shut Down command allows programs to close and data to be saved safely. It does not strengthen a mouse, renew a printer, or improve a website.
