    How to Hibernate the Computer in Windows 10


    Hibernate is a power-saving state designed primarily for laptops, and might not be available for all PCs (PCs with InstantGo don't have the hibernate option). Hibernate uses less power than sleep and when you start up the PC again, youre back to where you left off (though not as fast as sleep). Use hibernation when you know that you won't use your laptop or tablet for an extended period and won't have an opportunity to charge the battery during that time.

    This tutorial will show you different ways on how to hibernate your local Windows 10 PC.

    *note To be able to hibernate your PC, you will need to enable hibernate.

    If you want hibernate to show in your Power menu, you will need to enable hibernate and add hibernate to the Power menu.

    If devices connected to your PC (like monitors, printers, or scanners) aren't working properly after waking up from hibernate, you might need to disconnect and reconnect your device or restart your PC. You should also make sure that you have the most current drivers for all of your devices.

    Hello Maestro, and welcome to Ten Forums. *Smile

    I'm glad to see you got your new account all setup. Nothing triggered for your old account though.

    Double check the blue note box at the top of the tutorial to make sure that you have hibernate enabled and turned on to show in the Power menu.

    As a test, you might see if turning off fast startup may help with the not waking up issue.

  4. I have a desktop running Win 10 Pro and I only have Sleep & Lock showing as options.
    I have never seen the word "hibernate" anyplace on the computer.
