I'm designing a Windows 7 shutdown with updates screen which resembles the stock Windows 7 screen as close as possible.
The stock screen shows a message: "Installing updates. Do not turn off your computer.", see this (in German):



Which font is this?

From Identifont I'm assuming it's Verdana, 21 pt.
Can somebody please verify this?

I'm not 100% certain but I believe it is Segoe UI (Version 5.01), which a quick search shows that Windows 7 used for most of its UI.

Windows User Experience Interaction Guidelines – Fonts

Segoe UI - Version 5.01



Compare your screenshot...



and the same typed out in in Segoe UI...



The quality on your screenshot isn't great and I had to test it by typing it out on a live preview on a font website so there are differences but the proportions are (close enough to) identical and I'd assume the message uses the same font as the rest of the Windows 7 UI.
