Make your PC sleep

Hibernate

This option was designed for laptops and might not be available for all PCs (PCs with InstantGo don't have the hibernate option). Hibernate uses less power than sleep and when you start up the PC again, you’re back to where you left off (though not as fast as sleep). Use hibernation when you know that you won't use your laptop or tablet for an extended period and won't have an opportunity to charge the battery during that time. First check to see if this option is available on your PC and if it is, turn it on.

Hibernate your PC

  1. Open Power Options by swiping in from the right edge of the screen, tapping Search (or if you're using a mouse, pointing to the upper-right corner of the screen, moving the mouse pointer down, and then clicking Search), enteringPower options in the search box, and tapping or clicking Power options.
  2. Tap or click Choose what the power button does and under Shutdown settings, select Hibernate (if it's available).
Now you'll see hibernate in these two places:
  • In the Power menu in the Settings charm.
  • In the Shut down menu.
    To get here, move the mouse to the lower left-hand corner of the screen and right-click or press Start button, or on your keyboard, press the Windows logo key Windows logo key+X.

Note
If devices connected to your PC (like monitor,printers, or scanners) aren’t working properly after waking up from sleep or hibernate, you might to disconnect and reconnect your devices or restart your PC,
You should also make sure that you have the most current drivers for all devices. For more info, check out how to Download and install drivers
