That option was actually fully removed in 8 I believe, then restored in 11 (and newer versions of 10 iirc?) because everyone hated it so much lol
Also I think it was Vista that replaced the flag shield on the power button with a yellow exclamation mark shield instead to differentiate it from the new UAC which used the flag shield logo
“Turn off computer” requiring admin privilege escalation is a clever touch.
Actually it’s even more realism, when the shield is on the power button it indicates pending updates.

OOP knows their stuff!
Wow… that’s really intricate and sure is attention to realism to a level I didn’t realize.
Also the more or less hidden “click here to power off without installing updates” shows how little Microsoft has changed.

edit: images bc i love this stuff lol
Oh yeah, I had forgotten that too. UAC with separate elevated tokens and Session 0 isolation didn’t even exist until Vista/2008.
