So just hit the left arrow key once to highlight "Shut Down" and *then* hit the return key? It'll take you a quarter of a second. We've already made new actions for Plasma 6 that you can bind Ctrl+Alt+Del to to pre-highlight something else so you can self-satisfy; at this point I don't think there's anything else we plan to do here, sorry. And TBH I don't really understand what the big deal is that's resulted in you submitting quite so many bug reports about different angles of this. Is it *really* so hard to just hit the left arrow key once? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > So just hit the left arrow key once to highlight "Shut Down" and *then* hit > the return key?

Is it *really* so hard to just hit > the left arrow key once? Yes, thanks, the new shortcuts solve the issue for me. However, other people use the launcher menu buttons or the Ctrl+Alt+Del shortcut, which in MS windows is for restart. Git commit 4a14559a0562e1bbf59947947c5454a133cc7606 by Nate Graham. Committed on 06/04/2023 at 20:48. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Make "Shut down" the default logout option When pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del, the power button, or one of the remaining "Leave" actions, you'll see the logout screen with the default logout action selected. Currently that default action is "Log Out." Most people use single-user machines for which "Shut down" is probably a better default setting. For this reason, switch to Shut Down as the default action in the logout screen when invoking it from Ctrl+Alt+Del, the power button, or one of the remaining "Leave" actions.
