Type the following command and press ENTER. Via MSDN Set Hiberfile type to Reduced or Full, using Powercfg Reduced mode Hibernation file type Default size Supported power states Full 40% of physical memory fast startup, hybrid sleep, hibernate Reduced 20% of physical memory fast startup It helps to set hiberfile to “Reduced” if you’re running short of disk space on the system drive. ![]() The reduced mode is sufficient if you need the hiberboot (Fast Startup) feature but don’t need the (full) hibernate and the hybrid sleep features you can use the (S1-S3) sleep feature though. Whereas in Reduced mode, hiberfile consumes disk space that equals to only 20% of the RAM. ![]() ![]() Total Physical Memory – 7.9 GB Full Hiberfile size – 40% of 7.9 GB Note: In Windows 7, the hibernation file’s default size equals 75% of the total physical memory. Hiberfile (hiberfil.sys) type can be set to “Full” or “Reduced.” In “Full” mode (default setting), the hiberfile size would be 40% of the total physical memory. This way, boot ups are faster when compared to the traditional shutdown & cold startup. ![]() Powering on the computer again would cause the hiberfile to be loaded, restoring the previously saved image of the Windows kernel and loaded drivers. Then the system hibernates at this point - writing the OS kernel image and loaded drivers to the hiberfil.sys file, located in the root of your system drive (typically C:). When a user issues the shutdown command, all user accounts are logged off completely.
