6. Logging Out of Your Session

When you are finally done using your computer, don't forget to log out in a proper manner.

Logging out can be done from the main menu or from the menu which appears when you right-click on the desktop.

The screen shades and a little box with options appears. Click on End Current Session and you return to the login screen.

Two other options are available: you can choose to shutdown the system (Turn Off Computer), as well as reboot your system (Restart Computer).

This is the correct and safe way to shut down or reboot your system. You should never do it by pushing your computer's power or reset buttons because this can lead to serious problems such as file-system corruption or the loss of data.
