Before starting the body content, simply explain the use of the next hibernation, and the difference between it and sleep. According to official explanations, hibernation and sleep are power-saving states in Windows, where hibernation is primarily designed for laptops, where the computer that goes into hibernation saves open documents and programs to the hard disk, and then shuts down the computer. Sleep, in turn, saves work and settings in memory and consumes a small amount of power (maintaining the memory required for storage), somewhat like a pause in video playback.
WIN8 Power Options Default does not hibernate
In all of the energy-saving state of Windows, hibernation is the least available, so for laptop users, hibernation is most appropriate for a period of time without the use of the computer but not the shutdown. However, in Windows 8, you will find that the Hibernate option is not found, is it that Microsoft canceled this feature? No, Win8 just does not enable it by default, but we can still show it so that it needs to be used.
How do I operate?
First open the Control Panel, under the Win8 you can use the keyboard "win + x" key combination, exhale the lower left corner of the Winx menu, and then select the Control Panel, you can also right-click in the opening screen space, and then click "All Applications" under "Windows System" to find the control Panel;
Enter the "System and Security" category, click "Power Options" in the column "Change the power button function";
Access to Control Panel
The setting option here is locked, so if you want to change it, first unlock it and click "Change the settings currently unavailable" above the window to unlock it.
Unlock a set lock
After unlocking, the third item in the "Shutdown settings" below the window is dormant, displayed in the ' Power menu ', and the last click ' Save changes ' to exit.
