When I'm going to shut down on my computer, I typically put it in hibernate. However, when I went to do that today, there was no hibernate function to be found, only sleep (which I almost never use unless I'm going to quickly move to a different spot and continue where I left off).
The only change since this incident (other than regular Norton security) was an update of my Adobe editing software. What do?![]()

Krane if you want to turn it back on How to disable and re-enable hibernation on a computer that is running Windows
As to why it happened... I know in vista if you run disk cleanup it may remove the hiberfil.sys and you loose the option, I am not sure if that also applies to 7. -
Just checked, and the option doesn't seem to be there in 7. JOSEA has the method right though. Open a command prompt with admin rights and type powercfg -h on.
Where did "hibernate" go?
