Chromebook: How to Shut Down / Restart / Power Down / Turn Off

I show you how to turn off or power down a Chromebook. Note with this Samsung Chromebook there is no on demand restart button so you will have to turn off then turn back on.

Thanks! I have a gateway and this helped me

Thanks dude... It's my first time using Chromebook

It sucks, it should have an option to restart. I use a chrome OS installed in an old laptop and I control it from keyboard and mouse just to watch tv and YouTube videos. Sometimes I need to restart the chrome OS. I have to physically walk to the laptop. Some people criticize windows, but it still the best.

There is NO WAY I will remember all the info shown on U/tube, etc. Isn't there a book that has all this information that is "basic" in addition to a "step beyond" basic that we can buy and have on hand? Where can we buy it? My grandson uses a ChromeBook for virtual school and it "stops" regularly, we have to wait for a technician to phone us, etc. He has to makeup school work and misses his classes regularly. The school district just tells us to put in a "Help" request via phoning the school. There has to be a quicker way via perhaps a book with instructions? Thanks for any suggestions!

i have always been a pc guy. i just got a new galaxy chromebook as a gift. i don't even know which version. and its been on for 2 days (but the lid was closed at night) cause i never knew how to turn it off 🤣

[cascaradepollo]

I know how to turn off my Chromebook, after it turns off the recharging ports blinks and when I opened my Chromebook it turns on, so my question is can Chromebook be turned off completely? I hope I did not confused u guys, thanks, I'm new at Chromebook.

It does have on demand restart. You have to hit the key with the circular arrow and the power button at the same time. (button with circular arrow) + (power button) = restart.

Isnt turn of just sleepmode? Because when I turn it of its dead the next time i want to use it, I use it once a month.

I did that, but its not turn off, I mean, it does turn of, but instead of turned off, it seems like its sleeping, after turn off, I close the Chromebook (folding it down), then fold up (lift it up/open up from folded down) it went Turned On it self!? Was that normal? I did not click power button but it wake up / turned on it self!

I have a newer one power button on the side...it froze up and sounds like some kind of alarm is going off how can I force it to shutdown?

[kerri]

After mine is "Shutdown" it turns itself back on. I wake up in the morning an the lights are flashing...Or i dont see the lights flashing and go to use it and its got no battery left.

[ThingsToTalkAbout]

every night i would just close the top. i thought thats all u had to do.🤣

[williamwalsh]

What is the difference between "shut down" and "sign-out"?

[BFDIATPOT]

:⁠-⁠( it though it needs to power things 📴

[justintahair]

i get thee annoying red bars and it says chromebook wont shutdown properly

[eveblevins]

my screen is black it's been hacked by someone

[jacksonsinclair]

Chromebook sucks dont buy! No matter what mode i have it wont shut down when closed! This has been a huge inconvience because my work requires me to respond immediately and I need to be able to close that laptop instantly and then know that when I open it will work. Chromebook is just the worst huge regret.

thats not a chromebook because is a Samsung
