Does XP s quick shutdown hurt my computer? Masters, please come in!

More or less, it's better not to use it.

It's okay to close it normally, and it's not bad for a few seconds. That's not good for the hard drive.

No problem. Operating systems above 2000 support rapid shutdown, but running tasks are not saved. It's still a bit troublesome to hold down the ctrl plus shutdown method, and you can also quickly shut down directly by pressing the power switch on the chassis, and the operating system is supported.

There's plenty of time for the hard drive to buffer, so no problem.

But generally if you're not in a hurry, it's still a normal shutdown.

To be clear, there is harm, but it is very small, in the life of a computer that you can use, its impact is negligible, and when the harm really works, your machine has been used for a long time, and it is time to change, so rest assured to set it.

Hope it helps.

Happy New Year to you.

It's harmless, don't worry. But be sure not to unplug the power cord directly, it will have to go through the shutdown procedure before turning it off.

No, it will only affect the system!

Sometimes, we need to shut down the computer regularly, and the following author will introduce a simple way to implement a scheduled shutdown under Windows XP.

The system will automatically shut down after 22 minutes: click "Start Run", enter the command "shutdown s t 1320" in "Open" (note: quotation marks are not entered, there are spaces between parameters, the unit of 1320 is seconds), click the "OK" button.

To specify that the system will automatically shut down at a certain time (e.g., 12:00), enter the command "at 12:00 shutdown s" in "Open".

To cancel the scheduled shutdown, enter the command shutdown a in the Open field.

The implementation of the shutdown is implemented using the "shutdown" command, and the shutdown parameter is entered "shutdown" in the command line window. The author thinks that the most useful is the "i" parameter, which can call up the "remote shutdown dialog box", which can easily realize the remote shutdown of the computer in the local area network, and interested friends can give it a try.

Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete and turn off at the shutdown point above the taskbar. Hold down Ctrl before clicking Close. It's off in 2 seconds.

There is software optimization or one-click shutdown with software, and of course, the fastest one is power off, hehe.

When the system is shut down, a series of operations are performed, including: closing windows, ending processes and services, saving data, and so on. And does a quick shutdown like the one above save some steps, and does it harm the system?

Let's take a look at the steps to shut down the system normally

1.The shutdown command notifies the Windows subsystem, and after receiving the notification, it will exchange data with it, and then the notification will start the process of shutting down the system.

Query the user processes that have the top-level window in turn, and let these user processes exit.

3.Then start terminating the system process.

The above 3 steps are the most time-consuming part of the entire Windows shutdown process, and most of the reasons for slow shutdown are caused by these 3 steps.

The ntshutdownsystem() function is called to command the system to perform the tail sweeping work behind the bend of the mountain, and finally shut down.

It seems that the Windows shutdown process is quite complicated. However, using the CTRL key to shut down or using some rapid shutdown software does not go through a complete four-step process, but often skips the first three steps and directly calls the ntshutdownsystem() function to shut down.

Many pieces of software write data to memory when it runs, and save it to a file when it exits. If you don't shut down the computer after the previous steps, it will cause the program to fail to exit normally and lose data, which may cause some unexpected errors due to the loss of important data, which is harmful to the system.

In this way, shutting down is equivalent to pressing the power button for 6 seconds, which is not good for the computer!

Therefore, it is recommended not to use the CTRL key to shut down or some rapid shutdown software, after all, the security of the data is much more important than the little shutdown time saved.

Rapid computer shutdown (an alternative shutdown method for computers).

1. WindowsXP

1.Make a file to shut down. Create a new file on your desktop with a notepad file and type "new activexobiject(""))shutdownwindows 0;(quotation marks are not entered, the same below), and then close the save, and re-order "shutdownsj", so that every time you double-click the file with the mouse, you can shut down.

2.Countdown shutdown. Enter "shutdown -s -t 30" in Start Operation, you can shut down after 30 seconds, where 30 is the countdown seconds of shutdown, you can also customize the input, if you want to cancel the countdown shutdown, you can enter "shutdown -a".

3.Shut down when the limb field is fixed. Create a new "shortcut" on the desktop, and enter it in the wizard "Location" (the default installation disk is drive C):

C: Windows System32 10 Powerdown Delay:01, where 10 is the delay time of shutdown, delay:

01 is the time when the power is turned off. In fact, at this time, the scheduled shutdown of the mineral has to use the "Scheduled Task" program to add this "shortcut" to it, and then set it to the shutdown time of xx, such as 22:00 in the evening.

You can also enter "at xx:xx shutdown -s" directly in Start Run (xx:xx refers to the shutdown time).

4.Make the shutdown settings. In WindowsXP, you can set the shutdown as follows, enter "shudown -i" in Start Running, and a "Shutdown Settings" window will pop up, where you can set "remote shutdown", warning time settings and scheduling options, etc., here it depends on your settings to shut down at will.

Note: If you want to shut down or schedule a shutdown in Windows 2000, just copy the "WindowsXP C: Windows System32" file to Windows 2000 C:

winnt system32 directory.

Open the Task Manager - hold down Ctrl and don't let it go - click Shut Down to ensure that you shut down absolutely fast.
