If you can’t shut down your computer

If a problem with the computer prevents you from using the Power key or
choosing Shut Down—for example, if the computer “freezes” so that the
pointer does not respond to the mouse—you can turn off the computer by
pressing the standby power button on the back of the computer.

IMPORTANT

You could lose unsaved work if you use the standby power

button to turn the computer off. Only use the standby power button when
there is a problem that prevents the computer from being turned off with the
Power key or the Shut Down command. To make sure your work is saved, use
the Power key on the keyboard or the Shut Down command.
