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 and the operating system time to save information, close files, and stop processes in an orderly way. Directly removing power can lose unsaved work and, in some situations, interrupt storage operations or cause file-system problems. Shutdown is therefore safer for routine use, although emergency power loss can still occur.
