How to enable Hibernation In Windows 7?
Using Windows 7 since the past couple of days, I felt it strange that it didn’t have the usual hibernation option. So, I decided to check whether they are completely removed the Hibernation option or it had to be started manually. I tried manually, and it worked
In Windows 7, it is complicated to enable the Hibernation option as compared to XP or Vista. So, we need to do it manually.
Enabling Hibernation In Windows 7 Through Power Options
1. Go to Control Panel and click on Change when the computer sleeps.
After that just click on Choose Advanced Power Settings. This is when the Advanced Settings dialog box will popup. You can notice that in the category there is Sleep and under that is Hibernate. Expand Hibernate and then choose the time period of hibernation

Enable Hibernation In Windows 7 via Command Prompt
1. Go to RUN and type CMD in the dialog box provided.
2. Now type the following command exactly as given :
powercfg.exe /hibernate on
3. To disable hibernation, just use the following command :
powercfg.exe /hibernate off
Use any of the methods to enable it. But I don’t understand the logic of the Microsoft coders to hide such an important update. Hope they make some useful changes in the Service Pack 1.
