Using Stand By Mode The Stand By command puts the computer into a powersaving mode. Stand By stores the current state of the computer in memory so that, when you power on the computer, you can continue working from where you left off. Factors to consider when choosing Stand By: ❖ While in Stand By mode, the computer uses some battery power. If your computer is left in Stand By mode for an extended period, your computer could lose data. ❖ Restarting from Stand By uses less time and battery power than restarting from Turn Off or Hibernation mode.
