To ensure that your MacBook Neo is running at peak performance and that you have as little delay as possible, you must know how to exit apps correctly. Most people think all you have to do to quit an app is to hit the red “X” button and wait for it to disappear from the screen; however, while this does remove the visual representation of the program from the screen, it may not completely quit the app from running on your computer.
When an app does not fully quit, the app is still running in the background of your MacBook Neo and taking up space in system memory (RAM) or consuming your laptop’s battery, which can drastically affect how well your computer responds to other applications. If your computer is slow due to unresponsive applications, being familiar with exiting applications will help you improve system performance when using your MacBook Neo.
