Prevent shutdown when not initiated by user
How do I do to prevent a shutdown from being initiated by means that was not my own action?
I have already had multiple issues with programs that work with DB's on my computer (including my own) that become partly corrupted from being given the order to shutdown and then the process is killed (those 2, just being killed is no issue as they are ready to recover).
Some programs seem to have made thinking they are in a sandbox of some sort where they initiate the shutdown sequence without me confirming it. It annoys me.
How do I do so that I can give the order to windows to consider all shutdown orders as unauthorized or not allowed unless they come from me, by my own actions?
I have already tried what appears in the first 3 pages of results of this search:

Nothing helps. The closest one is shutdownguard... but it only prevents itself from closing, not the computer, not to mention it doesn't prevent a forced shutdown sequence which seem to be the norm for these programs.
