Windows 8.1 Update 1 Shut down
This new menu for shutting down and restarting the Metro Start menu has several functions as well as the menu under Win + i.
- Press Down - Windows will shut down in hybrid mode (fast start).
- Pressed Shift (up arrow) and Shut Down - Windows will shut down completely
- Restart - Windows restarts the operating system normally.
- Press the Shift key (up arrow) and restart - Windows goes to the Advanced Startup Options
If this new button in the Metro Start menu does not like it can also hide it.
- See: Button Shut down on the Start menu Windows 8.1 Update 1
- If you do not see the new start button:
- Button for shutdown missing in MetroStart
Button for shutdown is not displayed in MetroStart
Again, there is a solution.
- Win + R Press regedit to enter and start
- Go to path HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \
CurrentVersion \ ImmersiveShell \
- In the right window, create a new DWORD value (32 bit) with the name: DWORD value Launcher_ShowPowerButtonOnStartScreen
- If it does not go: Permissions in the registry
- Double-click this new value and set it to 1. This displays the power button in the MetroStart.
The value 0 then turns it off again.
Slide to shutdown
A new shutdown feature is in Windows 8.1 Slide to shutdown
- The * .exe is located at:
- C: \ Windows \ System32 \ SlideToShutDown.exe
You can also create a shortcut.
If you have triggered the SlideToShutDown.exe, you can:
- A click / touch in the upper area, lets Windows 8.1 shut down.
- A click / touch in the lower area, breaks down the shutdown.
Windows uses the respectively selected variant Hybrid or completely shut down if the hiberfil.sys is deactivated.
Windows 8.1 in the modern UI Metro style
- Use the mouse to the right top Charms Bar opens. Then press the Settings button to select On / Off
- Simply press Win + C Settings then down on / off
- Even easier Win + i press On / Off
Fully shut down Windows 8.1
- As described above, only hold down the shift key (arrow up) when you click on Shutdown.
- Or with a shortcut% windir% \ system32 \ shutdown.exe / s / t 0
Start Windows 8.1 in Safe Mode
- As described above, only hold down the Shift key (arrow up) when you click on Restart.
- Further possibilities to enter the safe mode: Start safe mode
Use the shortcut Win + X Shut Down, Restart
New in Windows 8.1 is the possibility to switch off the PC via the administrative menu Win + X or to put it to sleep.
- Win + X
- Open the Shut Down menu at the bottom
- Here you can choose between Shut Down, Restart.
So it's enough
- Win + x / r / r one after the other to shut down
- Win + x / r / n to restart.
- Win + x / r / e for energy saving
Important: Shutting down via Win + X means complete shutdown, despite the fast start (hybrid mode) enabled.
[Update]: With the Windows update in April 2014, Windows 8.1 can also be shut down via Win + X in hybrid mode, so fast. Here, too, you can shut down the PC completely by holding down the Shift key (up arrow). This saves the manual addition of the shortcuts with the Win + X Menu Editor as necessary under Windows 8.
