Avoid Computer Issues and Save Power

There are many reasons to properly “shut down” your computer at the end of your business day.  Leaving open windows on your system invites unwanted issues.  Computer reboots due to power outages and Microsoft Windows updates can cause data corruption when open windows are forced closed.  Running applications (open windows) can interfere with screensavers resulting in screen “burn in”.  Leaving the security cameras streaming when no one is watching increases band width consumption and “wear and tear” on the client system’s cpu and hard drives.  So, in short, close all appications (windows) when you leave your workstation.  This includes email, Timestone, Photoshop, browser windows, and UPS.  In the long run, you increase system life and save money on bandwidth, repair parts, labor, and our electric bill.
