I found that if xfce4-power-manager does not work if it is started with /usr/bin/xfce4-power-manager, the process is there but no power icon would be shown, the Power Manager in Settings does not work either.

However if I start xfce4-power-manager with command xfce4-power-manager --no-daemon option, everything works normally. Is there anyone facing the same problem?

You could create a launcher by the following method. Copy and paste the code in gedit and do the required changes..

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Power Manager
Comment=
Exec=/usr/bin/xfce4-power-manager
Icon=[link to icon(not required)]
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=[choose what categories you want this file]

and save the file as anyname.desktop
