| Guest | Re: Laptop Shutdown Tom Open Control Panel / Power Options. In the plan you have selected, click the 'Change plan settings' link. On the next dialog box, click 'Change advanced power settings'. Expand the 'Power buttons and lid' options. Expand 'Power button action'. Click on the option at the right of 'Settings'. You should have 3 options available there, select the 'Shutdown' option. Apply/OK. -- Ronnie Vernon Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User "Tom Risely" <Tom Risely@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:F02FBB75-ACEE-4337-9724-63B9AAB83893@xxxxxx Quote: > When i turn my laptop off (using power button on laptop), instead of > shutting > down it just restarts.
