When To Turn Computer On/Off
- You can turn your monitor off, but do not turn your computer off. WNS needs to apply security patches overnight so it is important that you leave your machine on.
- However, you should log off of your machine at night and on weekends. You log off your machine by hitting control-alt-delete and choosing the "Log Off" option. This increases system security and allows the machine to automatically reboot if patches are applied.
