- Run windows command prompt with admin privileges
- In the terminal type: powercfg -h off
- Press enter
Step 2.) Disable hibernation
- In the command prompt with admin privileges type powercfg.exe /hibernate off
- press enter
Step 4.)To turn the hybrid sleep setting on. (this is essentially the same process as steps 1 and 2 just replace “off” with “on”)
- Run windows command prompt with admin privileges
- In the terminal type: powercfg -h on
- Press enter
Step 5.) Re-enable hibernation
- In the command prompt with admin privileges type powercfg.exe /hibernate on
