Graceful warning before shutdown, when option selected

By accident I selected turn off PC, instead of close winscp. Without any warning, the PC of course turned off. I thought I had a serious problem. Did not expect the turn off.

I then realized what happened later. The ungraceful shutdown caused corrupt files and recovery mode on next boot. I was able to find and fix the corrupted files. Recovery on reboot was scary, but nothing boot wise corrupted.

The turn off PC option requires: 1 a warning and input timer to abort. 2 Graceful shutdown, not a hard turn off. In the MSDOS days a hard turn off didn't matter.
