Question 7 • Computer Science Foundations

Which of the following are best and safe practices for shutting down a computer or disconnecting a device? Check all of the boxes that apply.

Answer
A
Unplug and then eject.
B
Do not unplug devices while the computer is running or while you are using those devices.
C
Press the Power button to shut down.
D
Use the computer’s Shut Down option.

Explanation

Avoid unplugging a device while the computer is running or while you are using it; safely eject it first if needed, then disconnect it. To turn off the computer, use its Shut Down option so programs can close properly. Unplugging before ejecting is the wrong order, and pressing the Power button may force a shutdown rather than closing everything safely.
