How to Enable Hibernate and Sleep in Power Options on Windows 10, 8.1, 7

Windows 10 lets you put your system to sleep, or hibernate it. Older versions of Windows had these same two options. You can choose to hide both the Sleep and Hibernate option on the power button menu from the Power Plan settings on Windows 10. That said, if you don’t see the hibernate option in the Power Plan settings, it may be because Hibernate is disabled. When hibernate is disabled, the option is removed from the UI completely. It doesn’t appear as a greyed out option. Instead, it just looks as though it doesn’t exist. Here’s how you can fix the missing hibernation option on Windows 10.
How to Enable Missing Hibernate Feature in Windows Start Menu
1.Type power options into the Search box and hit Enter, or select the result from the top.
2.Either way, you’ll get to the Power Options. From the left column select Choose what the power buttons do.
3.Next, if options are grayed out, select Change settings that are currently unavailable
4.Scroll down and check the Hibernate box, and after that make sure to save your settings.
Now, open the Windows 10 Start Menu and click on the Power Button.
You’ll see that Hibernate is now an option for you to use from the Start Menu in Windows 10.
