In this article, I will guide you on how to enable hibernate as an option in the power section of your computer.

If you look carefully the shutdown settings are disabled currently and this means you can’t change its options, there is nothing to worry about because it can be enabled for you to be able to make changes.

Above the Power button and Lid, settings click on Change settings that are currently not available.

Once this is done the shutdown settings will be enabled for editing and click on the Hibernate checkbox.

Lastly, click on save changes.

Now you can click on the start button, click on power to confirm if the Hibernate option is visible.

Note: the steps vary based on the Windows 10 operating system, though it could be a slide difference, for instance, a Windows 10 professional user will get a bit different in settings as compared to windows 10 ultimate user, so whichever way this guide will give you a hint to get it done. Though I used Windows 10 Pro for this tutorial.
