Hi, Window + X, is another content menu command. The option that Kevin mention is only a power option menu near the bottom of the drop down list.
disabling the quickstart is the wrong thing to do My Pc starts up up faster with the quick start enable, Does the windows sound really matter? I don't care, if the sound was a choo choo train going through a tunnel!

When you do a shut down and then a start up, your computer comes on by way of the quick start feature in w-10. There are no windows sounds because you are not starting your system from a cold start. You are starting your system from a w-10 image file that was saved when you shut down your computer. This allows your computer to start up in about 10 seconds. This is one of the advantages of w-10, it's quick start up time. Yes, if you disable the quick start, you will get the traditional windows start up sounds. Because at that point you will be doing a cold start up, then your wait time will be any where from 30 to 60 seconds, depending on your computer. The new w-10 quick start is a combination of the Hibernation mode and sleep modes combined. I have used this quick start for about five months now, no negative impact on Jaws at all. Your computer is shut down, no heat or activity at all from your tower. Simply press the power button to quick start your w-10 computer. Your computer resumes in about 10 seconds, you are on the password or pin log-in screen. So, just to repeat, using the quick start in w-10 does not negatively impact Jaws. You are just quickly starting up your w-10 computer. By turning off the quick start feature in w-10. You will have a much longer start up time, and yes, the windows start up sounds will be heard. So, finally, this is a personal preference, no right or wrong way to have the quick start on or off in w-10. Personally, I have always used the w-10 quick start, this is a great time saver when you wish to quickly get on your computer. Again, this quick start feature does not impact Jaws in the least. The only thing you get by turning quick start off is a longer start up time, and the windows sounds. So, I hope this helps you to understand the w-10 quick start feature a little better. Love God! with your heart, mind, and soul, that you might be blessed reaching His goal. Love your Neighbor as you would yourself, God will truly reward you with good health. Love God, your neighbor, as you love yourself, you will then be spiritually balanced with wealth. Love His Word that proceeds from His lips, then reflect on the heavens where God sits.

Other than this, you will get the startup sound when restarting but not from a cold boot.
