You may also have to re-enter your password to resume after sleep, however that is another configurable setting. WOL also has business uses for example, rousing machines so that they can have update patches applied.
This means that your data is safe even if you switch of the mains and take out the battery. When the machine restarts, it loads the data stored in hiberfil. Incidentally, hiberfil. Press the Alt key, then click on the View tab and now scroll down to Hidden files and folders. Select the radio button next to Show hidden files and folders.
For example, there may be insufficient disk space on the c: drive to create this huge file, or some older Bios software cannot manage suspend to disk or suspend to RAM. You if you wish to use the Hibernate option, be careful that a Disk Cleanup operation does not delete hiberfil.
Solution issue the command line instruction: powercfg -h on. Hybrids are always more vigorous than their parents. In the case of Hybrid Sleep, it gives you the speed of Sleep, combined with the resilience of Hibernation. If all goes well then your machine comes out of Hybrid Sleep in less than 5 seconds, if all goes badly, then it takes relatively ages for the desktop to return, but at least you can recover your unsaved data from hiberfil. If you were of a mind, you could choose a different combination of Power Settings everyday of the year, and never repeat the same setting twice.
This utility will also guide you through troubleshooting; the dashboard will indicate whether the root cause is a broken link, faulty equipment or resource overload. What I like best is the way NPM suggests solutions to network problems.
Its also has the ability to monitor the health of individual VMware virtual machines. If you are interested in troubleshooting, and creating network maps, then I recommend that you try NPM now.

See screen shot of Allow hybrid sleep. Does the Bios support Sleep mode? To check the Bios you need to interrupt the initial boot phase.

In addition, on a laptop, it still draws power, which meant that your battery will still drain though ever so slightly according to the help file. Nope, I tried that once and boy was there a lot of power drain. As for the Hibernate mode, I would say this would be the better option if you wish to continue from where you left off earlier.
In this hibernation mode, the current state of your computer plus any of your open applications will be stored on the hard disk. Once all the information was written into the hard disk the PC will switch off. When you switch on your computer, the information will be pulled out from your hard disk and restored to the state which you left it before. And you could continue where you have left off though on firing up your PC, it would not be as instantaneous as the Sleep mode, but would still be faster than a normal boot up.
As for the Hybrid mode , as per the name suggest, it is a combination of Sleep and Hibernate mode. In this Hybrid setting, the current state of your computer is both stored in the RAM memory and Hard disk.
The idea was that in case the power was cutoff the current state of the computer was still safely stored in the hard disk. You could still boot up and continue from where you left off even if the power was cut off. The bad point was your computer was still running and drawing power and thus on a laptop it will slowly drain the battery and of course on a normal desktop, the power would still has to be supplied thus you still have to pay for the electric bill.
Of course, it is entirely up to you to decide which mode will suit you best. I think for myself, the best choice would be hibernate mode because it did not draw power and also because I would not be using my computer for an extended period of time in between usage; and of course the full proper shutdown with every application closed properly, which was what I had been using all the time.
And the only way to do that is to do a reboot. Setting each mode is easy, just go to control panel. For example if you prefer the button to shut down instead of going to sleep, just change the setting to shutdown. Beats opening the extended menu and then finding the appropriate shutdown button.
Saves yourself two steps to shutdown your computer, eh? Especially in this time and age of the rat race where everything has to be done fast-fast! Hyvrid Mode isnt normally available on desktops as it was designed more with laptops in mind. M1 Mac Dropbox.
