Put Computer Power button in System Tray on task-bar

In Windows8, Power buttons are provided in Log-On screen only. So, for new users it is quite difficult to find power buttons. Further, a regular user have to perform 2-4 steps to Shut Down a system which is too irritating task. Today, i am posting about a program utility that will put a Power management icon in System Tray as shown below and by just clicking on it you can shutdown, sleep, hibernate or even restart your computer.

How to Get Power button on Task bar:-
  • Download the NPowerTray utility for Power management from below download link.
  • After downloading this zip file, Open it and double click on NPowerTray.exe to install this utility.
  • Now look in the notification for this utility.
  • Just drag this to any desired position on task-bar's notification area.
  • Now, right click on it and do what you want to do.
To perform a default option on double click, follow these steps:-
  • Right click on icon, and select About...
  • From the opened NPowerTray window do following-
    • Check on Start with Windows Desktop to start this utility on system start-up.
    • Select a default action for double click on it from the drop-down list.


  • Windows7 users might need to install .Net framework v4.0 to install NPowerTray utility. You can Download .Net 4.0 here. for both x86 and x64.


That's all done.
