Lost the hiberfil.sys

Hi,

I'm using vista and accidentally cleaned up the hiberfil.sys using disk
cleanup, and lost the option to hibernate on the shutdown menu. How do I get
it back?

To resolve this problem in Windows Vista, run the powercfg -h on command at
a command prompt to enable the hibernate feature and the hybrid sleep
feature. To run this command, follow these steps:

1. Click Start, click All Programs, and then click Accessories.
2. Right-click Command Prompt, click Run as administrator, type powercfg -h
on, and then press ENTER.
