![]() ![]() You must intentionally turn it on using Control Panel, Power Options, Choose what the Power button does link, Change settings that are currently unavailable link, then checking the Hibernate checkbox. Hibernation is not shown as an option on the Power menu under Windows 10 by default, and never has been, regardless of the hardware platform. One of the things on my Windows 10 Initial Configuration Checklist is turning Fast Startup OFF. It has always struck me as entirely backward that a Restart forces a complete power down and purge of the entire OS system state, with an automatic restart and reloading from disk, while Shutdown is now a form of hibernation. Many are not even aware, to this day, that the default setting, which has Fast Startup turned ON, means that doing a Shutdown on their systems does not result in a complete shutdown such that the operating system reloads itself from disk on the next power-up cycle. I have had some very bizarre behaviors under both Windows 8/8.1 and 10 that were eventually traced back to corruptions in the special partial hibernation file (it only includes the OS system state, and no user state information) that is used by Fast Startup. On machines with SSDs the difference in startup time (when everything is working as it should) is imperceptible and on those with HDDs it's really not all that much reduced. I have yet to see any real advantage, and there are many disadvantages, to the whole Fast Startup paradigm.
