If you get lucky, it has a window close button on the right top as a safe way out. If you're unlucky... better have that power cable in reach.

Reminds me of this gem from Microsoft:

https://tech.slashdot.org/story/16/05/24/171215/windows-10-u...

> In a move guaranteed to annoy many people, Microsoft has "jumped the shark" on encouraging users to upgrade to Windows 10. Microsoft has faced criticism for changing the pop-up box encouraging Windows users to upgrade to Windows 10. Clicking the red cross on the right hand corner of the pop-up box now activates the upgrade instead of closing the box.

I have a feeling pulling the plug would cancel the action.

Hmmm, maybe... or perhaps you get a call that their monitor doesn't work...

On reconnecting the power cable we find all files deleted anyway.
