How to force restart of my imac

I have a Mac desktop. I haven’t used in a couple of months and when I tried to turn it on, it just keeps loading. It won’t load the screen.

You can press and hold the power button on the back of the iMac down until it shuts down.


Or just unplug it from power.


Then plug the power back in, and press the power button again to turn it on.
