If you leave your PC on all the time, It's a good idea to restart your computer from time to time, which can fix Windows problems and clear memory.

The only way you can know if your computer has failed is to turn it on, but if it fails to boot, you don't know whether there was a hardware failure when you turned it off or when you turned it on, but either way, if you'd never turned it off, it would most likely still be working now.

How to prevent computer from dying Step 1 : Be patient and let them take their time

If you get the right kind of UPS for your desktop, they often include software that you can install and a USB cable that will connect your UPS to your computer. The software can shout your computer off safely if you UPS is about to run out of power. It also gives you a way to monitor the power feeding your computer as well as different options that you can adjust to change the behavior of the UPS. I have one on mine that has a setting that I can either have the computer stays on as long as possible before shutting down or I can change the setting to safely turn off the computer if the power is off for more than 5 minutes. Most have a setting you can change the time. It also keeps a log of the power outages and how long the power was off. Most of these devices have an audible sound that occurs when the device switches to battery. You can set quiet times or even disable the audible alarm through the interface. I usually leave mine on all the time because I have my computers set to receive their automatic updates during my off times like when I'm in bed. All of my computers run Windows 10. My computers receive these updates too. But I have my computers set to restart themselves during the morning hours when I'm sleeping. If you do leave your computer on all of the time, restarting you computer at least once a week will help purge the memory as well.

Happy New Year! thanks for all you do.

I heard it’s better to leave a computer running constantly with a HDD. It is easier on it to keep running than to turn it off and start it up again. A hard drive only has so much spin-ups until it can fail. This is why some office buildings or other places leave them on 24/7 and can last much longer that way/

One can set HHD to never turn off

One reason for turning off modern computers is similar to the reason for storing data on external devices: You don't necessarily want everything to be connected to the network 100% of the time for security reasons. Also, if there is a lightning storm, make sure your computer is turned off and unplugged, and have a good surge protector as well. Another reason to store data on external drives that also works for cloud storage: Data backup. NOTE: This does not work for Windows programs and apps because they also have Windows registry entries that do not transfer easily if something happens to your main computer.

It minimizes certain charging issues if you charge when you sleep and lets the processors rest. My phone still runs great after two years and the batteries last days for general use.

HAPPY NEW YEAR from Sweden....

From a purely mechanical point of view it is not a good idea to leave your computer, especially a laptop, on all the time. Computers when powered on have fans inside which regulate temperatures to critical components such as the CPU and GPU. Fans draw in air and also dust which accumilate's on the fans themselves, reducing efficiency, and also on the heat sink of the components which need to be cooled and will eventually lead to a complete system failure and a very expensive repair bill - if a repair is even possible. As in the case of many Apple products. Some high end systems such as data servers are specifically designed to run 24/7 in an environment where they are also monitored 24/7. The average computer is not designed that way,

It is fairly true that constantly switching off and on electronics stress the components, or at least it used to be. Not sure with modern electronics

Can you continue to export a video on hibernation / sleep mode?

A computer technician's busiest time is a Monday morning: People go into work after the weekend and find someone's switched off their computer. When they switched it back on it doesn't work. A lot of faults occur when you cut the power to a computer, even if you allow it to shut down correctly. A daily reboot usually clears any residual memory corruptions; although it is good to perform software maintenance at least monthly, weekly if at all possible, and daily doesn't hurt.

Depending on your time zone! Happy new year or new year's eve! Hope your 2020 is blessed.. stay safe arrive alive🙏

I never turn mine off unless I am going to be gone for vacation or if we are expecting a tropical storm. During that time here in FL we have wicked lightening and that is NOT a good thing. My toy is tickin' along just fine doing this.

I always put my pc on sleep I will restart it when necessary, atleast 1 time a week. I shut it down only when I go away for a few weeks or longer. Also, To refresh your pc, you must restart it. Shutting down and turning it back on wont do that.

I have windows 10 pro with ssd. If I put my computer in sleep or hibernation mode it will "go to sleep" as you would expect, BUT when you press a key or move the mouse, the computer and fans come on but windows will not boot up. You can't press the power button to shut it down either. It does absolutely nothing. You have to turn off the power at the power supply, and then it may or may not boot up. The fans come on but there is no "bios beep". The only way I've found to get it to boot up again is to unplug everything including the mouse, keyboard or any other usb device. However, if I do a normal shutdown or restart it boots up in 4 seconds with absolutely no problem at all. It's only when I use sleep or hibernation mode I have problems with windows won't boot and the power button won't function. Figure that one out.

My sister has a Chromebook and she would often get problems with it after a few weeks of simply setting it to 'Sleep' by closing the lid on the computer. I showed her how to find and press the 'POWER OFF' button on her Chromebook and simply turning the computer 100% off every now and then totally got rid of all of the problems she was having with her computer. The same thing for her Router, I showed her how when it was having problems that simply turning it off, waiting 10 minutes, and then turning it back on, would get rid of the 'static electrical charges' that were causing the problems in the thing. Just turning an electronic device off, waiting 10 minutes, then turning it back on, would often solve problems that device was having.

Im a fire chief and we had 6 cases of fires in the last 11 years where a computer was the course of the fire. I will always recommend people to turn everything off if they leave their home.
