4 Benefits of Restart

If your System is getting slow and sometime your screen got stuck in middle of something then it’s time to restart/reboot your system.There are main benefits which you get after reboot.

  • Frees up Resources
    Computer’s Random Access Memory (RAM) is volatile, as opposed to solid-state memory (Hard drive). Ram switches between various short-term tasks and data, like running processes and holding program values.
    Rebooting your computer flushes out all this information, thus giving your device a fresh start. This helps the device to execute faster and more efficiently.

 

  • Stops Memory Leak
    Memory leaks occur when a program doesn’t close properly. Every program that runs on computer uses memory (usually RAM) while it’s open. When a program is closed, that memory should be released. Memory leak happens when an outdated, overused or glitch program is used. Rebooting your computer helps prevent memory leaks from occurring.

 

  • Fixes System Errors
    Computers when rebooted, runs diagnostics on itself and automatically fixes minor errors. These errors can range from buggy or glitch applications to problems with the RAM. This is why you’ll often find that when your computer freezes, restarting it resolves the issue.

 

  • Security Benefits
    Booting process resets the computer to a clean state. This makes it the perfect time to finalize new update installation for Operating System and installed Applications. Many Windows updates don’t take effect until the host computer has been rebooted. Similarly, freshly installed programs won’t execute properly until the system is rebooted.
