Why is proper shutdown considered better than directly cutting power?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It helps close open work and the system safely
A normal shutdown gives applications time to save data, close files, finish pending operations, and stop the operating system in an orderly way. Directly removing power can lose unsaved work and, if it happens repeatedly during disk activity, may damage file-system consistency. Shutdown does not erase passwords or decorate websites; it is a safe system-management action.
