Hi - just so you know, after Discover prepares updates, you are still able to install updates and shut down by going to go Shut Down normally (ex. from the Kickoff application launcher menu) - you'll then see the option presented on this page: https://pointieststick.com/2024/08/23/this-week-in-kde-per-monitor-brightness-control-and-update-then-shut-down/ in this picture: https://pointieststick.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/shutdown-after-update-on-the-logout-screen.png?w=1024 I do think it's a fair wishlist item to have Discover prompt you about the possibility of that action on its own screen, though. Thanks for the confirmation. You are right, the shutdown confirmation screen does in fact allow you to trigger the 'update and shutdown' feature...but only if you have the 'ask for confirmation setting'! (Under System settings > Session > Desktop session) https://imgur.com/a/1dMqI5u. I think that's enabled by default, but if you disable it, then the only way to trigger the shutdown is from the start menu, where that option is not present (at least in the 'Application Launcher' widget). Or is there a way to trigger the confirmation shutdown dialog somehow?

Hmm, you *should* be able to workaround that using either a Lock/Logout widget or by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del, both of which should present the confirmation-style screen with all of the available options? > Hmm, you *should* be able to workaround that using either a Lock/Logout

Oh, that indeed works. The widget is strange because it contains the same two lock/logout buttons as the application launcher, but the widget logout button does show the confirmation screen (the one on the application launcher does not).
The control+alt+del shortcut also works, I don't know how I missed that one. I'll be using that from now on (until discover provides it directly).
Thank you!
