#computer never gets refreshed by a true rebootThere is a) SLEEP MODE and b) HYBRID SLEEP MODE and although they are different, neither are necessary on a desktop computer.  The SLEEP MODE may have some benefit to laptop users due to battery operation.Windows 10 introduces "Fast Startup," yet another problematic feature that is related to sleep mode, and hybrid sleep mode.  It is recommended that you disable the Fast Startup feature of Windows 10 for both laptop and desktop computers.  The feature is problematic and introduces glitches.Locked Harddisk:  A Warning to DUAL BOOT LINUX Users!  When you shut down a computer with "Fast Startup" enabled, Windows locks down the Windows hard disk. You won’t be able to access it from other operating systems if you have your computer configured to dual-boot. Even worse, if you boot into another OS and then access or change anything on the hard disk (or partition) that the hibernating Windows installation uses, it can cause corruption. If you’re dual booting, it’s best not to use Fast Startup or Hibernation at all.
