Perusuudelleenkäynnistys
Perusuudelleenkäynnistys, often translated as basic restart or fundamental reboot, refers to the process of turning a computing device off and then back on again. This is a common troubleshooting step used to resolve a wide range of temporary software glitches, system hangs, or performance issues. When a device is powered down, all active processes and the random-access memory (RAM) are cleared. Upon restarting, the operating system and all associated programs are loaded anew from the storage drive. This fresh start can often resolve problems caused by corrupted data in RAM, conflicting software processes, or minor operating system errors that accumulate over time. It is a non-destructive operation, meaning it does not typically alter or delete user data or system files. The simplicity and effectiveness of a perusuudelleenkäynnistys make it one of the first and most frequently recommended solutions for many common computing problems across various devices, including personal computers, smartphones, and routers. It is considered a fundamental maintenance procedure that can refresh the system's state and restore normal operation.
