I don't know how or when it happened, but my restart/shutown option button in
the lower right hand corner of my Welcome screen disappeared?
 
I found the answer later on in these posts: Go to Regedit and find
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon and
change the "ShutDownWithoutLogon" value from 0 to 1
 
There was no "policies" in that location of my registry. See my further
answer how I solved it. You are giving the wrong advice.

Run regedit and make the setting above
