Instead of using the GUI (Control Panel | Power Options | Power Plan) to enable or disable Hibernate, you can do this from the command line.


1. Click the Start button.

2. Click All Programs and select Accessories.

3. Select Command Prompt.

To Enable Hibernate mode, use the following:
powercfg /hibernate on

To Disable Hibernate mode, use the following:
powercfg /hibernate off
