I don't need the hibernate feature and it take too much space on my hdd. What
should I do?
should I do?
"Darrell Gorter[MSFT]" said:Hello Richard,
It may not be as easy as you imply Richard,
The GUI option isn't present.
To re-enable open an elevated CMD prompt.
Run powercfg -h to enable hibernation again.

Rex Geissinger said:Oop! actually Darrel it is, Its just hard to find and buried. Its under
power options > Edit plan settings > Choose your power Profile. There are
2 drop down box's "turn off monitor" and "Put the Computer to Sleep" .
Below them is a hyperlink, "Change advanced power settings" click on that,
a window will open. scroll down to "sleep" expand the "Sleep" branch and
you will have 3 options
"Sleep after"
"Hybrid Sleep"
and "Hybernate after"
Set Hybernate after to 0 for never and the hyberfile.sys can be deleted.
Now going back to the "Put the Computer to Sleep" option, if this is set
to NEVER You can still set The "Hybernate After" to any value of minutes
for hybernate without sleep or vice versa through the Advanced settings
Dialog for your chosen power profile.
Hope that helps clear things up as microsoft has combined the Sleep and
Hybernate into a single function, but you can still set them seperatley if
you prefer.

looking for that exact feature for about 1/2 hour then decided to read
my eMail and some of the newsgroup. And there it was! Thanks!!!

I love it when a plan comes together!
Oop! actually Darrel it is, Its just hard to find and buried. Its
under power options > Edit plan settings > Choose your power Profile.
There are 2 drop down box's "turn off monitor" and "Put the Computer
to Sleep" . Below them is a hyperlink, "Change advanced power
settings" click on that, a window will open. scroll down to "sleep"
expand the "Sleep" branch and you will have 3 options
"Sleep after"
"Hybrid Sleep"
and "Hybernate after"

Now going back to the "Put the Computer to Sleep" option, if this is
set to NEVER You can still set The "Hybernate After" to any value of
minutes for hybernate without sleep or vice versa through the Advanced
settings Dialog for your chosen power profile.
Hope that helps clear things up as microsoft has combined the Sleep
and Hybernate into a single function, but you can still set them
seperatley if you prefer.
