How To Shut Down Chromebook [Tutorial]
18How To Shut Down Chromebook [Tutorial]
When you’re done using your Chromebook, you can sign out, put it to sleep, or turn it off.
The Chromebook runs Google's proprietary operating system and powers all applications through the Chrome Web browser. Because this notebook doesn't run a typical operating system such as Windows, there's no multi-step procedure to shut down the machine.
Hold the Button
On Windows-based computers, holding the power button is a last-ditch effort to force your machine to shut down. But on Chromebooks, it's the only way to fully power down your system. Press and hold the power button located in the upper right corner of the keyboard for three to five seconds to power down. Press the key again to power on again.
Automatic Power On
In most cases, your Chromebook will turn on when you open the display lid. Since there are no power- and memory-intensive programs installed, the notebook should return to fully functioning order in as little as 10 seconds.

About Chromebooks:
A Chromebook is a laptop or tablet running the Linux-based Chrome OS as its operating system. The devices are primarily used to perform a variety of tasks using the Google Chrome browser, with most applications and data residing in the cloud rather than on the machine itself. All Chromebooks released since late 2017 can also run Android apps. Some Chromebooks can run Linux apps.
The first Chromebooks for sale, by Acer Inc. and Samsung, began shipping in 2011. In addition to laptop models, a desktop version, called a Chromebox, was introduced in May 2012, and an "all-in-one" device, called a Chromebase, was introduced in January 2014, by LG Electronics.
