Restart your PC

Restarting your PC (also known as rebooting) is an extremely common fix for most computer/technology related issues. 

 

Windows

In current versions of Windows (10 and newer) using the restart option in the start menu is the only way to give your system a full reboot. Shutting your PC off using the shutdown option with default settings in Windows generally puts your computer into a sleep state until you start it back up. Choosing the restart option will clear any cache saved on your system and truly be restarting... hence its name.
