win + L -- lock

 

I don't turn my rig off, don't hibernate, don't log off, don't sleep -- lock basically just well locks the pc behind a password, with all background processes running. Even though it's just me and my cat, I still like to lock my pc when I step away or go to sleep.

why do you like to lock it? lol

I never really thought deep into why, guess it's just a good habit to have.

 

At home alone there isn't really "a threat" of somebody hopping on and going through my computer, but in public its a different story.

Do you still reboot like once a week?

pcs tend to lose performance over time, have ig it on for like a month without a reboot would destroy performance

Nah, 3 months + of uptime is not uncommon.

 

Edit: Restarts are usually not intentional either. Cat might've jumped on the power button, windows nagging me to death about an update and I finally give in after months of telling it "remind me later" daily, etc.

It has happened to me I was the same way with my pc but not paranoid so no password except for the annoying windows 10 passcode I havent bothered to figure out how to bypass or remove

Me? Win+X+A to open Powershell as admin. No need a single click and just one hand.

Reminds me of the idiots who run computer admin for my work--whose "genius" idea is an announcement that has been up for 6+ months--that everyone needs to restart their PC daily.

ALT + F4 very handy when you start to rage at games.

Definitely Win+D shows desktop, if you press it again, everything appears again.
