"Turn Off Computer" option is missing from Start Menu

Problem:-

When you click Start Menu, the Turn Off Computer option may be missing. This is due to a group policy / registry restriction. To restore the missing option, try this - for stand-alone systems:

Solution:- 


  • Open Registry Editor by typing REGEDIT.EXE in the Start, Run dialog.
     
  • Navigate to the following locations:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer
-and-
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer
  • In the right-pane, double-click the value NoClose and set it to 0.
     
  • Restart Windows for the changes to take effect
