Does Hard reboot damage my Ubuntu

rated 0 times [ 17] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 7166 / 2 Years ago, fri, january 7, 2022, 2:11:24

Some times my laptop gets stuck due to excessive usage of RAM when I open bulky applications. So if it does not respond I shut down the laptop using the power button. Does this damage Ubuntu in any way? Can it give rise to security problems or vulnerabilities?

It won't cause security problems or vulnerabilities.

But it can cause damage on your OS and loss of data depending on the tasks that are running at the time.

That being said, your computer still shouldn't get stuck at high ram usage.
