Windows 11 24H2 – Shutdown/Restart options missing or not working
Hello, I’m having an issue with a Windows 11 24H2 desktop. When I try to shut down or restart the PC from the Start menu, the only option available is Lock, instead of the usual Shut down / Restart...
Since the problem appears to be user-specific (e.g., Alt+F4 signs out instead of showing shutdown options), try creating a new local user account and see if the issue persists there.
If the new account works fine, it indicates a user profile or permission corruption.
