No LeDon, you are not wrong. Most people use the ALT + F4 command from the
desktop to shut down or restart their computers, you can also do such things
as switch users, and simply sign out without shutting down from here.
Another option would be to use the shutdown option from the start menu. In
over 30 years of using computers, I do not ever remember using the run
dialogue box to shut down my computer.

With windows seven, I just go to the desk top and press alt F4 to shut down
windows. I thought that that was what everybody did. Am I wrong again?

Ever since XP hit the streets the command for shutting down a Windows system
is as easy as opening the run dialog and entering the following command:
Shutdown -s -f -t 00
The 00 is for immediate shutdown. If you want it to turn off in 30 seconds
then just enter 30 instead of 00. The rest should be obvious.

A complex system that does not work is invariably found to have evolved from
a simpler system that worked perfectly.

Alt + F4 opens the traditional Shutdown Window in Win 10 but don't tell M$.
They might remove it in the next update.

Thanks for this information. I will give it a shot in the morning.
Have been at this a long time today. Using a laptop and slow download
speed with the network. Have chronic back trouble, and it is on fire
right
now.
Exhausted, but happy.
By the way, in Win 7, to shut the computer down:
1. Windows key
2. Tab twice to shutdown split button.
3. Space bar for shutdown.
What are the comparable steps with Win 10?
Just want you to know that I appreciate your work. It has encouraged
me to be bold. Have just enough knowledge to be dangerous.
Thanks. Neil

Hi Neil,
Good job, I knew you could do it.
Press Windows key+X, the first item is programs and features.
Press enter.
Works the same way as it did in w-7.
Highlight the version of Jaws that you want to uninstall, press enter.
Follow the prompts, keep shared components and shared settings.
Turn narrator on after Jaws is uninstalled with Windows key+Enter.
Press the windows key, up arrow to power, press enter.
Down arrow to restart, press enter.
After a few minutes, press Windows key+enter, to turn narrator on.
Sign-in, use narrator to go to your download folder where you should
have the latest Jaws 16 or 17 already downloaded.
Press enter on the Jaws file, turn narrator off, with, Windows key+enter.
When Jaws finishes installing,
Redo your shortcut keystroke for Jaws.
Redo the Start up on the log-in screen.
For whatever reason these two settings are not kept, all other
settings for Jaws are kept.
No need to restart after the installation of Jaws is complete.
Good luck...
Consider the snow flakes
Consider the snow flakes, as they fall, bright and beautiful one and all.
Watch the snowflakes as they fall, all are different, large and small
Look at the snowflakes as they fall, they are One of God's treasures,
created for all.
Consider Him, as the blizzard blows, let Him warm your heart, and give
Him your soul.
Take a walk with Him daily in the snow, pray and meditate on Him
whenever you go.
Remember, God loves you and I, trust in His salvation before you die.
