Hi, is there any way to press the power button to lock the screen?

In power options I can only choose between Shut Down, Sleep or Hibernate.

Thank you very much!

Which style of the menu are you using and do you have any Group Policies enabled that will hide Lock? Lock is always available in both styles of the menu. A screenshot would be nice of where you want to press to lock the system.

I think rambomhtri means the hardware power button. Classic Shell is not in control of that button's behavior.

Unfortunately no, that is a Windows setting. But you could press Win+L to quickly lock.

And what about through CS? Is it possible to replace the start menu shutdown button for sleep or hibernate?

Yes, Classic Shell can replace what the shutdown button does in the start menu. It cannot replace what the hardware power button on your PC does.

Thanks! Found it. For those looking, right-click start icon -> settings -> main menu tab -> shutdown command.
