Windows 10/11: how to check if Hibernation is enabled or disabled
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/10/14
A long time ago I wrote about How To Fix Missing Hibernation Option On Windows 10.
Back then I needed to enable it (using powercfg.exe /hibernate on or disable using powercfg.exe /hibernate off), but I forgot about how to query this setting.
[Wayback/Archive] windows check if hibernation is enabled – Google Search gives me a result which is somewhat workable, but hopefully some day I find a better solution than in [Wayback/Archive] How to see from commandline (!!!) if hibernation is on or off? – Windows 10 Forums:
powercfg /query will also tell you. Look for the data after:
Power Setting GUID: 9d7815a6-7ee4-497e-8888-515a05f02364 (Hibernate after)
GUID Alias: HIBERNATEIDLE
Minimum Possible Setting: 0x00000000
Maximum Possible Setting: 0xffffffff
Possible Settings increment: 0x00000001
Possible Settings units: Seconds
Current AC Power Setting Index: 0x00000000
Current DC Power Setting Index: 0x00000000Both A/C and DC are set to 0 which means Hibernate is disabled.
