I knew about the control panel, it also works through the tray icon. However, I’m intentionally not running as admin – I believe a user account should run with as few access rights as possible. It should be a simple matter of assigning some access right to the ‘Users’ group, but I can’t figure out where to do it… the shutdown right could be easily managed in the security policies editor, but I can’t find a corresponding setting for the power options.
