How to Add Hibernate to be Listed in Power Button Options

As I stated in the previous subheading that Hibernate is usually not one of the options listed when you click the Power button after installation of Windows 11 Operating System on your computer. As a writer, I like using Hibernate because it gives me the opportunity to continue my work from where I stopped after hanging out for the day. Why your computer is hibernated, some apps you were working on before leaving for something else are not closed. At hibernation, they are left open at the background of your computer. So, I do not need to start the app again but to press the physical power button of my PC, type my PIN, and then continue to work on the application.

To add Hibernate as one of the options you will see when you click the Power button of your computer, click the Search icon at the taskbar section of your computer, and type “control panel” in the search box. This action will bring up the control panel of your computer just as you can see in the photo below.

About to get to the control panel of my computer

Click on the Control Panel indicated by the arrow above. This action will open a control panel window just as displayed in the photo below.

The control panel page

The next step you are to take is to click the System and Security command which is indicated in the photo above. On doing this, a new section opens which is what I have in the photo below.

System and Security settings page of control panel

There are many commands you can see on the System and Security page, but our interest is on the Power Options section. In that Power Options section, click on Change what the power buttons do. This action will open a new page where you can tick what happens when the Power button of your computer is clicked. This is shown in the photo below.

About to tick the Hibernate box

Under the Shut-down Settings just as you can see in the above photo, the options that are ticked are Turn on fast start-up (recommended), sleep, and Lock. The Hibernate box is not ticked. So, tick the Hibernate box, and then click the Save changes button positioned at the bottom of the page. On taking this step, Hibernate is added as one of the options you will see when you click the Power button of your computer running Windows 11 Operating System.

Note: If you are not able to tick the Hibernate box, click the link “Change settings that are currently unavailable”. As you do that, go and click the Hibernate box. And lastly click on Save changes button. At that point, you will see Hibernate appear as one of the options when you click the Power button of your computer.
