Thats what come out al last that one has to click at that blue pop up screen to shut down PC; the conclusion at last -
1. Push two buttons on keyboard to turn off - 1 Sec.
2. Bend and strech hand to push power button, again reach the keyboard to press enter - 5 sec

My trick safer and faster
(windows button +u+u) could have been equally faster but doesn’t worked, some speech thingy poped up instead.

in the accidental case u can configure it to prompt also..it has options for that also..in hibernation delay in work is inevitable if someone pressed by mistake..
then its a matter of choice..

Yes Shashank, tats even more easier but there is a problem in it. Think of a situation when you are doing a very important work on computer and a someone (kids in home often do it) touch the power button poof all gone.. you are helpless and can do nothing and just watch all your unsaved work gone. Even if you selected hibernate you will not like it as it will cause unnecesary delay in work. So what i have done that whenever power button is pressed, it prommpts me what to do, in this way i am secure.
Its all about one’s choice, I like it this way, you may like it your way and someone (well most) just like the windows default !!

let me tell u my way of turning off your computer in style with just one button …
use power options to configure the the power button to be
used as a hibernation or shutdown button ….
it is something like this i can remember
“when i push the power button ”
select the option from the menu ..i prefer hibernation..

then whenever u want to hibernate press the power button thats it.. now tell me which is style yours or mine ..easy and fast..
no offenses..and also try (windows button +u+u) for a quick shutdown..
