Windows 10: Windows 11 Hibernate not functioning properly

Hello, I have a Dell Inspiron 15 3576 with Windows 11 Home installed on it. This device is also enrolled in the Windows Insider program Beta channel. I hibernate my PC very frequently and this had no issues in Windows 10. After upgrading to Windows 11, hibernate isn't working properly. Sometimes it hibernated properly, other times it hibernates and the next time I turn it on again the PC would have shut down and all my open apps are gone. And finally it sometimes says "Your Windows Insider build just ran into a problem. We're collecting info and restarting for you." Please help. Any help is ap

:)

Windows can be configured to eventually wake back up and go into hibernation. It's possible that it's not hibernating properly.

I suggest turning off hibernation and seeing where that gets you.
