Re: no shut down button in start menu

In windows vista there is a third butten that you have to select and it will
pull up a menu and at the bottom it will say shut down and there you go

RE: no shut down button in start menu

Having the same problem, no shut down dialog. Went to the link you suggested
but tried to run the command but no go. Is there no hotfix for this problem?

Hi Dennis,

Did you logoff and logon, or restart the computer afterwards to apply the changes?
