Win+X > U > U

Shuts down your machine with no mouse required, use U > R if you wanna restart

I just Alt + F4 from the desktop or just press the power button. I always change it to regular old shutdown.

agree on the power button change, unless you have little kids, in which case the button should just be disabled.

I saw other people mentioning managing multiple computers in an offise space. I wouldn't trust that everybody wound configure the power button action.

i don't understand what you mean exactly

Sometimes people manage other computers so it's not practical to configure all of them and you can't trust what people have configured for the power button
