Re-Enable Hibernation in Vista

When you run the disk cleanup wizard in Vista you may have noticed that the Hibernation is missing from Vista. This is due to a known bug in Vista that is till today still not fixed.
Turning it back on is a very simple procedure. Just go to the command line (go to start and type in the big white search bar ‘cmd’ if you don’t know how to get to the command line) and type following line.

powercfg /hibernate on

Its possible that you have to restart your computer or change the energy settings to hibernate again. But now you’ll be able to select it.

For the dutch speaking reader Hibernate is Sluimerstand in Vista not Slaapstand which is Stand-By.
