    sleep versus hibernate versus hybrid sleep


    How to enter hybrid sleep?

    For a long time, but not forever on win10, this Asus 2 in 1 laptop can never awake from sleep, it hard locks in sleep when it goes to sleep on its own, And usually hard locks within a few minutes. I told it NEVER to shut down when on AC power, so this problem is better than it was. IT was happening on battery or AC power.

    I was able to activate hibernate and it awakes with power button when I manually tell it to hibernate.
    The problem happens when it does sleep on its own timer.

    I tried this command here, so looking for additional help on sleep variations and why this thing is messed up. Trying anything to make it work. I dont know yet if it helped it.

    By lock I mean, the power key is lit up bright, solid, all buttons are unresponsive, only fix is to hold the power key down till it reboots.

    Whats the Difference Between Sleep and Hibernate in Windows?
    Talks about setting up hybrid sleep, never says how to enter hybrid sleep, see its badly written.
    Does she then mean 'hibernate' in the power menu has become hybrid sleep when you click the power button?????

    :)

    Hibernate mode Vs Sleep Vs Hybrid sleep.

    @Knoxx29 , hybrid sleep used to have problems only with some ACPI drivers. It did not involve hibernation mode directly, like many "tech websites" assumed.

    I use hybrid sleep, cause I do have occasional power outages, and my UPS is not very reliable (time for a new one). I only shut down my PC at night. The rest of the time I put it to sleep.
    So far I had no problems with Hybrid Sleep, except one customer laptop. I think it was ASUS K53S, and it suffered with sleep and hibernation on all OSes, excluding Ubuntu 16.04.
    My old x58 rig also had some hiccups in Win10, but nothing critical or annoying.

    sleep versus hibernate versus hybrid sleep

    Shutting down, hibernating, or sleeping?

    I only get hibernate and allow wake timers not allow hybrid sleep.
