Shut Down Icon

How can I add a shutdown icon to the desktop?

This thread at Questions has a method, but the thread is old, there must be an easier way now:

https://www.linuxquestions.org/question … op-868910/

I am setting up a machine for my 87 year old father (his old pentium with 256 MB just isn't cutting it anymore) and everything needs to be very simple.

Thanks,
JP.

Re: Shut Down Icon

Right-click on the desktop and select the "Create Launcher" option. Add the following:
- Name = Shutdown
- Comment = Shutdown the computer
- Command = xfce4-session-logout -h
- Icon = <select one that suits>
