If it's phone support they might have a call-length metric. Stringing you along, but maybe not too much, might be useful to them!? I hate this too, fwiw. Thou

If it's phone support they might have a call-length metric. Stringing you along, but maybe not too much, might be useful to them!?
I hate this too, fwiw.
Though one time I was caught out on a forum: I said I'd 'turned it off and on again, lol!1one' and the respondent was like 'no you have to restart'. And that was the day I learnt Windows restart does something different to power-cycling.
Issue still outstanding, but I did make the Jackie Chan 'wth' meme face, and whatever SE board voted to close it without a solution for whatever rubbish reason.
- tempestn 5y agoRestart definitely does something different than a forced power cycle, if that's what you mean, but I believe shutdown and then boot up is nearly equivalent to restart. Are you saying it's not? Do you have more detail on the difference?
- chrisdave 5y agoRestart doesn't give the electrons time to cool.
