FORCE shut down

its been a week since i purchased MBP 13 inch
as an ex-user of windows i was frequently used to shutting it down and now i just now realized how un-essential it is to FORCE shut down mac
i did it like 50 times as far as i know
you think it might have caused any trouble
MBP so far so good though

just asking

There's a difference between "forcing" a computer to shut down…and going to the Macintosh "Apple" drop down menu & telling the computer to shut down via the "Shut Down" command.

In either case…I doubt you did any damage.

basically i was doing "Macintosh "Apple" drop down menu & telling the computer to shut down via the "Shut Down" command"

ok sorry i confused restart with shut down, i was FORCING it to restart
well i was actually both shutting down and restarting it for this past week
now i have learnt my lesson, i ll restart or shut it in case i update some software or install something new on it
so everything should be fine now i hope and there is no internal damage, fingers crossed

A forced shutdown would be pressing and holding the power button until your Mac powers off.
