Windows 10: Power Button and Alt f4 issue - "There are currently no options available"

My Pc is connected to a private network and this problem started only after I installed SAFE EXAM BROWSER http://safeexambrowser.org/download_en.html on my PC . Upon installing the task manager got disabled and I could no longer shut down the computer in normal mode. I had to got to command prompt to shut my PC ! The thing is this problem persists even after I removed the browser from my computer ! I couldn't find a good copy to replace the corrupted file in my system . I would be really grateful if u could help me solve this issue !

There are currently no power options available

Hi MR, welcome to the Microsoft community, my name is Luiz Cruz, Microsoft's independent consultant, and I would be happy to help you.

I understand that your computer is not shutting down completely. To solve this problem I suggest that you perform the steps below:

Step 1:

Change the function of the off button. To do this, follow the steps outlined below:

1. On the Desktop, simultaneously press the Windows + R keys to open Run;

2. At Run, type "powercfg.cpl" and click Ok, to open the Power Options;

3. Click on Choose the function of the power button, change the item When I press the power button to Off;

4. Click Save Changes.

Step 2:

Disable third party software and services from system startup. They may be running in the background, making it difficult to shut down the computer. For more information, the article below:

How to perform a simple boot in Windows.

Step 3:

Disable quick system startup. To do this, perform the steps below:

1. On the Desktop, simultaneously press the Windows + X keys, then click on Power Options;

2. Under Power Options, click Choose the power button function;

3. Then click on Change settings not currently available;

4. Deselect the Turn on quick start (recommended) item, click Save changes.

If the answer helped in any way, please mark it as an answer, if your question has not been solved, please post again.

I hope I helped, even more!

 

Issue related to (Alt + F4) functionality in windows 10

(Alt + F4) functionality in previous Windows operating system versions was to close the current window.However, in
Windows 10, the current windows does not close when clicked on
(Alt + F4) and keyboard button and mouse click stops working.

 

There are currently no Power options availeable on clicking power button

Hi,

I'm not sure why you are having this issue, but can provide a quick workaround until a solution is found..

Click on your Desktop ( or any window) and hit Alt+F4.. This will bring up the old fashioned Shutdown\Restart\Sleep window as used in Windows 7.. It will also close any current open window you click on..
