Lock Button Menu has Fewer Options


I am sure must of you know the lock button menu to the right of the
shutdown and lock buttons. For me, it used to have options like Shut
Down, Sleep, Hibernate, Log Off, Lock, etc.

Now, the only options are Switch User, Log Off, and Lock.. There are no
options related to power. Is there any way to reset this menu? I've
tried resetting start menu options to default, and other options along
those lines. Please help!

Re: Lock Button Menu has Fewer Options

Hi, Enkarta.

Do you see that little arrow (actually a triangle on its side) just to the
right of the lock? Click it - or just hover over it for a second. You
should get the pop-up menu with the other options. There are 7 options on
my menu.
