Hi Yash,

There are three ways to shut down your PC:
You can turn the PC off completely, you can make it sleep, or you can hibernate the PC.

Turn off your PC completely

If you don't plan to use your PC for a while, you might want to turn it off completely. Before turning off your PC, close all open desktop apps,this will prompt you to save your work.
Some PCs have a power button ( Power button ) on the Start screen. If your PC has a power button, tap or click it, and then tap or click Shut down.


If you don't see the power button on the Start screen, here's how to shut down:
  1. Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Settings.
    (If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, and then click Settings.)
  2. Tap or click Power, and then tap or click Shut down.

Sleep

This uses very little power, your PC starts up faster, and you’re instantly back to where you left off.
  1. Open Power Options by swiping in from the right edge of the screen, tapping Search (or if you're using a mouse, pointing to the upper-right corner of the screen, moving the mouse pointer down, and then clicking Search), enteringPower options in the search box, and tapping or clicking Power options.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • If you’re using a desktop or tablet, tap or click Choose what the power button does and under Power button settings, select Sleep and tap or click Save changes.
    • If you’re using a laptop, tap or click Choose what closing the lid does. Then, next to When I close the lid, choose what you want your laptop to do, when it's running on battery and when it's plugged in, and then tap or click Save changes.

Hibernate

Hibernate uses less power than sleep and when you start up the PC again, you’re back to where you left off.

  1. Open Power Options by swiping in from the right edge of the screen, tapping Search (or if you're using a mouse, pointing to the upper-right corner of the screen, moving the mouse pointer down, and then clicking Search), enteringPower options in the search box, and tapping or clicking Power options.
  2. Tap or click Choose what the power button does and under Shutdown settings, select Hibernate (if it's available).

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Lokesh

I kept getting the blue screen with Driver Power State Failure error message and then my computer would restart. I found your product and it did not happen any more. I just purchased an anti-virus (kaspersky) and now it is doing it again. It is so frustrating. My computer is only 6 months old. It is a Asus desktop.
