Ivan,

If neither Alt-F4 from the desktop or Windows key followed by up arrow twice to the Power button and space bar or Enter to activate it doesn't work there's one more thing you can try.

Control-Alt-Delete. You should come in on Lock. Shift Tab once to the Shutdown button. Space bar or Enter to activate it. This should open a context menu with sleep, shutdown, and restart. I would use restart to give the system a chance to fix this problem. It is a serious problem when you can't access this most basic component of Windows.

Hth,
Tom

If this problem continues, will send you a shortcut to place on your
desktop.
Let me know if you would like to try it, and will send it to you.

Based on what you've posted, this probably won't work, but you can press the
on-off button on the computer itself.  Don't hold the button down, just
touch it lightly.

I used to hit the Windows key followed by the right arrow but that
does not work now.  Nor does alt-F4. My sighted wife also cannot find
how to close the computer down. Please help.
