Shut the pc down through start menu and switch the PSU off on the back.
Shouldn't give you any issues then.

I'm gonna cable manage my computer by unplugging everything and routing everything accordingly, but the last time I did that my pc said that it did not start correctly. When this happened I had to reinstall windows and I lost some stuff so what do I do so that doesn't happen ?

Press shut down on your PC.

It really shouldn't do that at all so it might be something other than just unplugging the cables.
