    Removing a switched outlet
    So in our downstairs office there are four outlets, 3 of which are switched by the door. I'm thinking of moving things around but would have to plug the computer into one of the switched outlets. I really do not need any of the outlets to be switched so here is my question. Can I simply pull the switch out, put some wire nuts on and put a plate over the old switch? Thanks in advance!
