Power options are usually on the top right of your screen.

Should be on top right of the menu. On the same horizontal line as your name.

The only options that were there was sign out and lock screen

If you click "Sign out", does it give you an option to power off?

Yeh, it's just I was setting this laptop up for a senior and was trying to make it as simple as possible when I explain things like shutting it down

Ah ok. I remember the layout looking something like this: https://www.dedoimedo.com/images/computers-years/2020-2/mint-20-xfce-menu-show-desktop-icon.jpg

Must have changed then :(

Oh it does look like that, but i can't see the shutdown button in that picture. The one that I thought looked like shut down is actually log out
