Set your computer to shut down when pressing the power button

and closing the lid instead of sleeping

Run - > regedit (as admin)

go to:

HKEY_Local_Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings

search for 833a6b62-dfa4-46d1-82f8-e09e34d029d6 (description "Enable forced shutdown for button and lid actions".)

If you want to make this option appear in Power Options -> Advanced Settings, you need to change the "Attributes" REG_DWORD value to 2 instead of 1.

This only works for the CURRENT power plan.
