Friends, if your computer keeps getting cold or stuck while you are in the process. Then check to make sure your computer is not overheating. Extreme heat is usually caused by the environment in which the computer is located.

This article will show you a list of solutions to keep your computer cool at all times.

The most important reason to shut down your computer is to solve system problems. When computers last longer, they begin to act randomly or to cause minor bugs to occur.

By shutting down your computer you give it a chance to clear everything and have a fresh start.
