When you’re not using your PC it’s wasting energy if it’s left on. But sometimes you want to leave it on because you have a lot of work in progress and you want to save your screen just as it is, ready for when you get back. For example, you’re working on something and suddenly you remember you’ve got a meeting. You don’t want to or don’t have time to save everything, close everything and shut down your computer. Plus it’s a hassle having to start it back up and load everything as it was before.
