🚨 When should you use it?
Emergency Restart is designed for situations like:
💥 Your PC is completely frozen
🐌 Windows is extremely slow or unresponsive
❌ Programs refuse to close
⚠️ You suspect malware or another serious system issue that prevents a normal restart

⚠️ Important Warning
Because Windows immediately restarts, you may lose any unsaved work or documents.
Only use Emergency Restart when:
✅ Normal Restart isn't working
✅ Your computer won't respond to mouse or keyboard input
✅ You can't safely shut down Windows another way
For everyday use, always choose the normal Restart option instead.
