Why was the Windows11 system lock screen function moved from the user menu to the power button?

After the system update, the lock screen function was moved from the user menu to the power button interface, making it inconvenient to operate. I need a solution to adjust the method or restore the original layout.

  • It sounds like after a recent Windows update, the way to lock your screen has changed, making it less convenient. Typically, Windows allows you to lock your screen quickly via the Start menu, keyboard shortcuts, or by customizing the Power menu.
