Assume I want to find out from cmdline (=in CommandPrompt) if currently Hibernation is enabled or not.
How can I do this?

I can turn it on/off with:

powercfg /hibernate off

but I cannot show current status with "powercfg" as far as I know.

Try:
powercfg /Q

Maybe you'll find something better in:
powercfg /?

Try

powercfg /query

That lists settings for the current power scheme. The hibernate
settings for AC and DC power are listed there separately.

Did you try powercfg /? or powercfg /help yet ?

Perhaps this shows Hibernate's status ?

-GETACTIVESCHEME
Retrieve the currently active power scheme.
Usage: POWERCFG -GETACTIVESCHEME

Nope, it just shows the power scheme.
IIRC, Hibernate shows as one of the shutdown options *if* the system can
hibernate and *if* it's been turned On.

Note: The FollowUp-To header is irrevelant in your post to one
newsgroup. It shouldn't be used at all except for a few rare groups.

Have you tried running:

powercfg.exe /?

to see the /query parameter? If you run:

powercfg.exe /query

you will see whether or not hibernate mode is enabled. If you don't
want all the other output and just the line(s) that state the hibernate
mode then use the 'find' command to show just the matching lines, as in:

powercfg /query | find /i "hibernates"

"Herbert Meister" has more than one nym. And Herb never replies
to any answer he/she/it gets, so you can never know whether the
answer helped or not.
