Windows 10: Start Menu > Power Submenu is empty

Hello!

I am new here, but I have a problem that I can't seem to find the answer to. Here is an image of what I am experiencing.





Has anyone come across this and found a solution?

I'm running Window 10 Home Edition on an MSI CX61 Laptop.
Thank you!

:)

 

Start Menu > Power > "Submenu Blank"

I know this is an old thread but I found the solution to the problem with a post on the technet forums.

Windows 10 Non-Admin users cannot shut down

Basically it's a permissions issue where basic users do not have permission to shut down the system. Here's what you gotta do:

1. Open up secpol.msc with admin rights

2. Expand Local Policies->User Rights Assignment

3. Open up Shut down the system

4. Add the 'Users' group

5. Log out of the affected account and back in again. They should be able to shut down.

 

Start Menu > Power > "Submenu Blank"

Notice the small plank window just above the Power Selection (Lower Left Corner of Screen)

Thanks Again.

 

So when you click Power Nothing is showing
Mine shows
Sleep
Shut Down
Restart

Also above the Power Button
Should show Settings

I've had this problem for about 3 days now.

I have not tried a System Restore.

I did do a SFC /scannow and it didn't find anything wrong.

 

Try a system restore if you still have trouble then
You may have to do
Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade - Windows 10 Forums

 

Do system restore.
Pick a date when you did NOT have this problem as your restore point.

System Restore Windows 10
