Click the Start menu and you’ll see that the default option on the bottom right is
to Shut down,
with the arrow next door allowing you to extend your options, like
restart or log off. It’s possible to customise this if shutting down
isn’t the choice
you primarily use.
To do so, right click Shut down, select Properties
and this will bring up a
taskbar customisation window that will let you
choose your own power button
action. For example, you might want to
default to sleep if that’s the choice you
usually go for.
