Solved That #@$$%^!!! Charm bar

[t-4-2]

Resting the cursor at bottom right corner in order to bring out the Charm bar has always been a " hit and miss " proposition to me.
Is there a better way to call up the Charm bar É

I have enabled " Shut Down " and " Restart " options in the right click context menu.
Is there a `Sleep `option for right click menu also ?

Try winkey + c for charm bar.

Depending on how you added the Power options, you could probably just add a sleep or you could remove then reapply these

The right click context menu for Restart and Shut Down at desktop are from this Win 8 tutorials.

But I can't find a tutorial for the " Sleep " option.

I gave a link above for a complete power menu - here - alternatively you can use the tutorial from Brink - Power - Add Cascading Desktop Context Menu in Windows 8 but you'll need to add a couple of lines to the reg file for the sleep option:

; Sleep
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\sleep]
@="Sleep"
"icon"="shell32.dll,-246"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\sleep\command]
@="rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState Sleep"

Also, near the top of the file there is a line that begins:

"SubCommands"="

Add the work 'sleep' between between signout and shutdown.

The reg file is a text file with a .reg extension so you can edit the file with any text editor such as notepad. You can remove your existing entries by using the options from the pages you linked to in your post.

Thank you very much.
I'll do that a little later. I am sure it will work for me.
