How to hide the Win8.1 Update power button

At the Build2014 Developer Conference, Microsoft brought a new Win8.1 Update platform for the Win8.1 platform, especially for the start screen to bring the power button. But Microsoft's intimate reminder is not the dish for all users. For example, the Surface Pro tablet does not have this power button, and ordinary desktop users do not need this power button.

Therefore, the registry is also used for all Win8.1 users. Tip: One key to hide/turn on the Win8.1 Update power button.

Then how to operate it, the specific reference can be found below ——

1, because we need to register the Win8.1 registry "moving knife", you must back up the current registry in advance For example, Rubik's Cube Cleanup Master (click here to download) provides the "Backup Registry" function.

2. After backing up the registry, we only need to open two notebooks and record the following two contents:

• “Hide power button"

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

////Hide Win8.1 Update Start Screen Power Button

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionImmersiveShellLauncher]

"Launcher_ShowPowerButtonOnStartScreen"=dword:00000000

• “Restore power button 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

//Recover Win8.1 Update Start screen power button

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionImmersiveShellLauncher]

"Launcher_ShowPowerButtonOnStartScreen"=dword:00000001

Save the above two notebooks as hidden power button .reg, restore power button .reg.

Reminder: Pay attention to the suffix format of the document, that is, txt is corrected to reg, refer to the following figure

3. Traditional desktop users: If you need to hide the Win8.1 Update power button, then you only need to run Hide the power key .reg, import the current system registry, and then log out of the current system or restart the resource manager to take effect.
