Windows system has its own hibernation function, which can save all the data in the current memory to the hard disk and turn off the power. When the computer is turned on again, it can quickly return to the state before it is turned off. But if you turn on the hibernation function, it will take up a lot of computer memory. What should I do? In fact, Microsoft has already introduced the hibernation file slimming mechanism, but this mechanism is turned off by default in Win7/Win8. 1 and needs to be turned on manually. In Win 10, it has been turned on by default, and the slimming percentage can be adjusted intelligently, but users can also adjust it manually, and the maximum slimming range can reach 60%, that is, slimming hibernation files only account for 40% of the memory capacity. Just introduce how to use this function.

Recommendation: Download the official version of windows 10.

The following is how to use this command (taking Windows 10 as an example):

1. Run the command prompt as an administrator.

2. Execute the following command (as shown below):

powercfghibernatesizeXX

Note: The above "XX" represents the percentage value, and the range is an integer of 40- 100. Entering a value below 40 will keep the hibernation file size at 40% of the system memory size.

▲ Caption: The memory size of the tester is 16GB, and the hibernation file becomes 6.39GB( 16x40%) after the maximum slimming.

▲ Caption: hiberfil.sys file size change (hiberfil. The sys file needs to be hidden from the system file in the folder options before it can appear).

If your hard disk is large enough, you can enter 100 directly after the command, keeping the amount equivalent to the memory size, and the performance is the best. If your hard disk space is limited and you don't want to use the hibernation function, you can also use the Setup Master of the Soft Media Rubik's Cube (click Download) to close it with one button, as shown below:
