However, for some reason, the tech giant Microsoft decided to remove the hibernate option from the start menu of Windows 10, as in Windows 10 by default we don’t get the hibernate option, as we can find only three options.
What the hibernation mode consume is disk space, and the Windows hibernation mode can simply occupy a few GBs of space, and not only that as we already hinted earlier that when you wake up your computer from hibernation mode, the process is usually a bit slower than when you wake it from the sleep mode. Hence, the total energy consumption will be zero, as when we put a computer into hibernate mode, it simply turned off the computer which leads to zero percent energy consumption, unlike the sleep mode. While if you have a laptop with a good battery autonomy, then undoubtedly it can last up to more than a day like this without running out of power.īut, when we use the option hibernate, it almost do the same thing that the sleep mode does, however, the difference is that instead of storing the current condition of the PC in the RAM memory, this mode, of course, hibernate simply store the current condition of your PC on your hard disk (HDD or SSD). However, the sleep mode only keep the RAM turned on, as in RAM memory, the current activity status of the system remain stored, so that when you turn on or activate your PC you will get back your last status or simply it will resume your system from the last activity in which you can find all the windows and applications active that you had open.
Basically, in the most used operating system of the tech giant Microsoft, of course, I am talking about Windows when we activate the well-known sleep mode the computer automatically enters into the minimum power consumption mode.
