The importance of shutting the computer down properly Most people do not understand the importance of shutting the computer down properly. There are many tasks that the Operating System performs that are important to the smooth operation of your computer. Below are 3 of the most important. 1. Windows performs what is called write-behind caching. Write-behind caching speeds up your computer by allowing Windows to write information in memory to the disk when more resources are available. 2. There are some registry entries that Windows does not make until a shutdown is performed. If you just turn off the computer, these entries will not be made. 3. If you are a network and have shared resources, performing a shutdown will release those resources, whereas just shutting off the computer will not and leaves the resources hanging.
