In the control panel, open power options. Then, choose the APM tab, and
choose to enable advanced power management. This should allow your computer
to automatically shut down without pressing the power button.

On my system, the APM tab is missing. Anyone got any ideas?

you must go to device manager, then, on the view menu, activate show hidden
devices, you will see Apm/legacy interface ... disabled, you must enable it

if you don't see it may be is disabled on bios or may be your motherboard
don't support this option
