Also why can we restart PCs since this contradicts this recommendation?
In: Technology
Nobody really addressed the restarting a PC part. When you tell Windows to restart, the computer itself never really shuts down. The hardware stays powered up, and just goes through the boot process again. All of the physical components are still on. That’s why sometimes a tech, or that computer savvy family member, will tell you to specifically do one or the other. Turning it off and waiting a few seconds does exactly the same as what the others have said: allows the capacitors to discharge.
