Disable hibernate in Vista/2008
Posted on Thursday, February 14, 2008 4:20 PM

If you're running Vista or Server 2008 in a virtual machine, you're unlikely to ever want to hibernate, however more virtual disk space might be useful.

powercfg -h off

Disables hibernation, removes hiberfil.sys, and gives you back a chunk of disk.

Enjoy.

Obvious really, however it just had me foxed for a while doing exactly this:

When you're on 64bit version of Windows all the goodness is in %windir%\Microsoft.Net\Framework64, Framework contains the 32bit version for apps running in WoW.

Hope it helps, Neil.
